were can i find research on magnetic fields and their ability to work to generate electricity?

Question

i've been working on a zero friction bearing for 10 years now and all but the math has been worked out including a prototype but i lack the education to effectivly descride what the bearing is doing mathmatically and have recently discovered that it miht be possable to generate electricity through a series of pullys and rotation speed of other magnetic fields .(can a magnetic field generate purpetual motion through rotation and alternating maneticfields?

Answer 1

There is no such thing as perpetual motion nor a zero friction bearing. It violates some of our most well tested and fundamental theories about how the universe works.

But for a good book on E&M theory, I recommend Griffiths. It's the book of choice for many undergraduate physics programs in the US. For a grad level text try Jackson.

Hi.

I recommend a google.com search on this "electromagnetic waves and fields research". I know there is a good book on Electromagnetic Waves & Fields used by Purdue University but I don't recall the name of it. You can find the name of the books currently used at the below link. See "Text" section.

Also, you can write a know researcher on the subject:

I hope this helps. The book will outline the equations and variables. Basically, as the magnetic field crosses a conductor, I believe it generates an electrical current. The opposite is true too. As a current runs through a conductor, it generates a magnetic field. The amount of current and the size and shape of the magnetic field can be calculated or predefined based on those questions.

Best of luck. :-)

Answer 3

Electrical engineering
About the closest you can get to perpetual motion is, with a superconductor suspended over a magnet. As the earth revolves (and as long as it revolves) the superconductor will rotate 360 degrees every 24 hours.

Answer 4

Major portions of physics and electrical engineering deal with electromagnetic fields. But your better bet is to find collaborators already skilled in these fields. Thermodynamics, if you think you'll get free energy from it. Mechanical engineering / materials science to evaluate whatever appears to allow zero friction.
