Mythbusters did a similar one using a fan and a sailboat. The boat moved. Backwards.
It will work fine of your intention is to secure the arm so that it won't dangle when you drive
For the same reason why this device does not go left by the metal slab pulling the magnet to the left
Jim Knopf und Lukas der Lokomotivführer (Jim Button and Lukas the Engine Driver) dit it first:
They even got one step behound: The two rocks you see in the drawing are actually a broken up magnet into it's north pole and south pole, so it's only magnetic when they connect the both with a metal rod. Genius. (ofc that's EXACTLY how magnets work)
There are magnetic monopoles, but only in quantum physics.
I also find it funny how i got introduced to the troll physics meme 20 years before it was called that, as a small child back in the 90s
Magneto was right!
I think that only works on steam trains
Obviously, because they don't want us to know this. Duh.
It's basically the same problem as the sailboat with a fan.
What are you trying to imply?
You moron, that would make the car flip, you need to attach it to the back of your car horizontally
Me sighing as people akshually comment explaining the obvious in a meme sub. 😅
There are no stupid questions
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
