Thebox, yes sorry I got it wrong. There's clever adults and clever teens.Then there's serious people...
I have been alive for something like 1,356,048,000 seconds
Been occasionally thinking about this before the internet when young. Then the internet came out and with that power was wondering

There's clever adults and clever teens.Then there's serious people...And there are serious clever people- who understand that this proves that your project won't work.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noether%27s_theoremI realise that you don't understand it, but that doesn't stop it being true.
Your impact drive will not work. You get the same amount of movement whether you move a weight quickly or slowly. The only difference it creates is the amount of time it takes for the weight to move a certain distance up and down. If you have a weight in a vehicle that is floating in space above the Earth and you push that weight up with a force of 150 kilonewtons, the rest of the ship will be pushed down by 150 kilonewtons as well. That is Newton's third law in action. For every action (the weight being pushed up) there is an equal and opposite reaction (the ship being pushed down by the same amount of force). Once the weight stops moving, there will no longer be a force acting on the ship at all and it will stop moving altogether.On the return stroke, when the weight is being pushed down, the same amount of force will push the ship up now. It doesn't matter if this force is the same as the up-stroke (150 kilonewtons), more than the upstroke or less than the upstroke: you get the same result. The ship is pushed in the opposite direction of the weight until the weight stops moving, at which point the ship stops moving too. It's inevitable. You can do the math yourself if you are unconvinced.Birds do not fly by this principle. They fly by pushing air downward. If you take careful note of how a bird's wings are positioned during flight, you will notice that the angle of attack of the wings changes as they move up and down. It is not at all like moving a weight up and down to create movement.
Wrong webpage bandit, that's angles, and not related to relative impact.Go Chemist...
Quote from: paulggriffiths on 01/10/2017 09:36:02Wrong webpage bandit, that's angles, and not related to relative impact.Go Chemist...I said you wouldn't understand it.I will try to explain.The law of conservation of momentum proves that a ship in space can't move without, in effect, something to push against.Noether's theorem shows that the conservation law is true.It's a mathematical proof that it's true; there's no real "wriggle room".So, you can't move a ship by waving stuff around in it.So your "invention" can not work.
Isn't that like saying a rocket has no thrust in space?
I'm glad you enjoyed the time...Newtons laws of motion are not motion and then impact. It had a result didn't it? Needs to controlled.I'm not expecting 100% efficiency, expecting 60-75% but as I have as good as unlimited energy, who cares.Anyway, devote your time to your own project? Then you can complain to yourself... got to more interesting than complaining to a computer screen? uuh?

No, it isn't.If it had been like saying something that's clearly not true, I'd not have said it.A rocket has thrust because it pushes the hot gases out the back.Gas goes one way and the rocket goes the other.
If I throw an object 10 mph up in to the air, I need to know how gravity will affect it in math over time.Any calculators or equations?

Bored Chemist, I like you, or more to the point I don't, and more so you saying not possible! I saying, the good, bad & you're ugly.

I saying, the good, bad & you're ugly.Whether I'm good bad or ugly isn't the point, is it?This is a science web page,and you are not doing anything like science.You are just sticking words together.
Fancy going on a journey to the edge of the universe?
You can't generate net forward movement just by shifting a weight around inside of an object, no matter how quickly or slowly.
