 Experimental Investigation (1) Decreasing of Mass
Aim
This laboratory experiment is to investigate the theoretical link between electric, magnetic and mass energy, apart from that demonstrated by the electric motor and dynamo.
Concept
The electric motion (current) through a copper conductor which has been wound into a coil produces (at a right angle to the electric current) magnetic energy which replicates a bar magnet, if there is a bar of iron within the windings. This is a simple solenoid. The iron is the conductor for magnetic energy and this is readilygy and this is readily observable. When that iron is formed into a continuous circuit, or ring, the magnetic energy of the bar is converted to its other form, being magnetic motion or current. Magnetic current can be converted back to electric current, as is the case with an electrical transformer using exactly this principle.
If the magnetic current carrying iron conductor were itself wound into a solenoid configuration, with the copper electric conductor still in place around it and electrically insulated from the iron windings, the magnetic windings should have an effect upon the volume within that solenoid and the mass within it. All three energies are at right angles to each other in this design, as is the case in the electric motor. If the application of electric current to the copper windings creates a magnetic current in the iron windings, then a measure of an alteration of the mass within the second dimension solenoid would prove a connection between the three phenomena, going beyond the already known connection between the first two, electricity and magnetism.
Apparatus
0.4 mm laquer insulated copper winding was wound around 1 mm plastic coated ferrous wire, copper winding in single layer covering 2.0 metre length of ferrous wire and 2200 turns of copper wire of total electrical resistance 1.4 ohms.
The iron wire with its copper windings was then wound in solenoid fashion around 3 mm ID transparent plastic tube, making a total length of 2 dimensional winding of 255 mm in length. There are 97 turns of ferrous wire which are copper wound, and at each end an additional 21 and 19 turns respectively of ferrous wire without copper winding, total 137 turns containing 350 mm of plastic 'mass' tube.
Fittings for connection were made on the ends of the copper windings for electric current; end to end connection of the iron wire to form a ring for magnetic current; and a joiner tap for joining the transparent plastic tube to itself to allow a current of mass (in liquid form) to flow and be observed.
Laboratory equipment used is a Powertech 0-30V, 0-3 A variable DC power supply and Digitech electronic scales measuring in grams to an accuracy of 2 decimal places (1/100 of a gram).
Method
(I)The transparent tube is filled with liquid water containing small amounts of oil, approximately the same density as the water so that any movement within the tube can be readily observed.The tube tap is closed and the whole apparatus is placed on an acrylic dish on the electronic scales and an accurate weight taken after warming up the scales for 15 minutes to prevent any fluctuations (as recommended by the manufacturer). The power supply is switched on to the copper conductor coil and a reading of voltage and current flow noted against the weight reading on the scales over a period of time. Time, current, voltage and weight of the apparatus are noted photographically so that nothing is touched or changed between readings. All air movement from outside is eliminated within the experimental area. Volume of mass within the tube within the magnetic coil is approximately 4 ml of liquid water plus 260mm of plastic tube, weighing in total approximately 5 grams.
(II) The tube tap is opened and observation for induced motion of the liquid mass is made. Further data on change in weight vs current and voltage with tap open allowing mass current to flow.

Weight Decrease (Newtons)

Data (II)
There was no observed movement of the liquid mass with the tube tap open and no weight change was therefore measureable to compare with weight change when tap was closed.

Results Analysis
The foregoing experimental data (summarized in the above graph) indicate a decrease of the weight of the matter within the magnetic coil over a period of approximately 18 minutes. The change in weight indicates a change in the mass charge of the liquid water (and plastic tube) within the coil. It is estimated that the initial weight within the coil was approximately 5 grams, and the variation maximum was measured at 0.33 grams, representing a change in weight of 6.67%. The majority of the weight loss occurred in the first 12 minutes. Voltage and current through the apparatus remained very close to constant. Weight decrease levelled off at about 18 minutes.
The wire diameter of the copper windings limited the electric current which could be forced through the wire without undue heating, however the results do suggest that a similar apparatus built of heavier materials and more turns of wire may yield a more spectacular result in terms of weight loss (or gain), which is the measure of the reduction (or increase) in mass of the matter within the apparatus. It is known that the number of turns of electric conductor and the magnitude of the current it carries directly affects the magnitude of the induced magnetic field within the apparatus and therefore the magnitude of the change in mass induced.
The entire experiment was photographed as it progressed with a picture of the clock followed by a picture of the digital readings for weight, current and voltage, and nothing was touched or altered during the entire 24 minute period while readings were being recorded by the camera. The data for this experiment can be viewed in the file Mass Exp 1.
Note: Weight is correctly measured as a force (W=mg) with the SI unit 'Newtons'. Mass is measured in 'Kilograms'. A body with a weight of 100 Newtons would, on Earth, have a mass of 100/9.8 or 10.2 kg. This error is rarely highlighted in physics texts, which often erroneously use the SI unit kilogram as a measure of weight. S-T units make this error easy to detect, W= mg becomes t/s2 = t3/s3 x s/t2 = t/s2 .
Provisional Conclusions
The results support the underlying hypothesis in this paper which proposes the view that mass is a charge carried by most particles of matter and that it has both a mathematical and physical connection with the energies of electricity and magnetism. The experiment was conducted within the constant gravity field associated with the Earth, from which it can be concluded that the experimental apparatus altered the mass of the matter within the apparatus and not the gravitational acceleration. The reduced weight in the same gravity field means that it is mass which is reduced, from the mathematics which indicate that Weight = mass x gravity, W = mg.
It is not clear why the alteration of the mass within the apparatus was also a function of time, except the reason relating to time proposed near the end of Section 7 under Variable Space and Time. Further research using higher energies may reveal a clearer mathematical relationship relating time to the change in mass from its electrical origin. S-T units already suggest that the relationship of time in these mathematics is one of linear, square and cube, that is, 1/t, 1/t2, 1/t3 in the case of the E-field, B-field and G-field respectively. It is already known that there is a build and decay time for an induced magnetic field. In the experimental apparatus it is a case of electric current (E-field motion) inducing magnetic current (B-field motion) reducing mass energy with no apparent conversion of mass to motion (G-field motion). Mass motion is apparent in the parallel case of an electric motor, which has the a similar orthogonal relationship between the different fields. It may be that in the low energies used in the experiment the friction of the liquid in the tube was greater than the motive force applied to the liquid, resulting in a loss of mass rather than motion. Further investigation may be warranted.



 Experimental Investigation (2)Increasing of Mass
This experiment is aimed at a replication of Experimental Investigation (1) with a reversal of the direct current polarity in the electrical windings, that is, reversing the electric current direction within the apparatus. The data so obtained may provide some further understanding of the relationship between electric current, magnetic current and mass charge and /or mass current.

Weight Increase (Newtons)

Results Analysis
The results of Experimental Investigation (2) summarized in the graph above show an increase in the weight of the matter within the apparatus coil of 0.64 grams, an increase of 13% of the approximate initial weight within the coil, about 5 grams. The weight gain occurred within the first 18 minutes and thereafter levelled off to a constant total weight of 82.28 grams from 81.64 grams for the total apparatus. There was no observable motion of the liquid in the mass tube. The data for this experiment has been photographed and can be seen in the file Mass Exp 2.
Preliminary Conclusions
The reversing of the direction of the DC current through the electric windings has, increased the mass of the matter within the coil. The increase of mass in Experimental Investigation (2) is approximately double that of the decrease in mass in Experimental Investigation (1). The reason for that is not yet clear.
The reversed results of these two experiments eliminate the possibility that the result in either case arises from faulty measuring equipment, operator error or other outside influences.
Post Script: From the result of Experiment 3, it was then known that the reduced mass of Experiment 1 was carried over into Experiment 2, and the increase in mass of Exp.2 included the reversal of Exp.1, thus approximately doubling the observable change.

 Experimental Investigations connected with Mass Alteration


After experimentally verifying the theoretical connection between the energies of mass, magnetism and electricity as described in this paper, the apparatus used in those experiments is further used to examine other aspects of these phenomena.

Experimental Investigation (3)

Aim: This experiment is intended to examine and quantify the process of elevating a mass and if it returns to its original natural value, and whether there is a return of that energy through the coil system to manifest as electric current or potential in the copper wiring coil.

Method: The original liquid mass in the mass tube is replaced and added to by a larger (heavier) mass in the form of a solid which can be inserted and replaces some of the liquid. The material is plastic coated 1 mm iron fence wire. Its net weight is 3.53 grams. Add 1.00 gram for the plastic tube and 3 grams for 3 ml of water replaced in the tube within the coil, total 7.53 grams weight (N), in addition to the weight of the coils, giving an initial total weight of 82.39 grams weight (N).

Weight increase 0.74N
% increase in weight within coils 9.82%
Time to increase weight 34 mins
Decrease of weight after current shutoff - Zero



Residual potential in coil with elevated weight - Zero

Results:
The percentage increase in the weight is of the same order as the previous experiments. The time taken to achieve that increase was approximately double that of the previous experiments, possibly because of the increase in mass within the coils from the addition of the wire. There was no decrease in weight after the electric current was shut off, and no measureable residual potential within the electric coil. The apparatus was left on the scales for 40 minutes after the conclusion of the experiment without any reduction in weight (mass). Photographic records of this experiment are available in the file Mass Exp 3.


Conclusion:

The electrical energy converted to mass charge by this experiment remained as mass charge and did not revert to electrical energy after disconnection. The apparatus creates additional mass charge on the matter within its coils which remains there and is manifested as increased weight within the Earth's gravitational field. The results of Experiment 3 eliminates the possibility that the fields from the experimental apparatus caused a faulty reading by the electronic scales.

This is Cutting Edge Physics




'' If a force is applied to an object of invariant mass, that object must accelerate according to Newton's Second Law of Motion, F = ma. When an applied force does not result in an acceleration (in the absence of any other counter forces), the mass of that object becomes variable. '' (Bull's Law ? :)


The results of a series of experiments conducted by this author in 2014 using a second dimension electric – magnetic – mass coil apparatus of the author's design and construction, showed clearly that the weight of an object within that coil system could be increased or decreased and that the weight variation became permanent for that object after it was removed from the coil. The experimental results supported the mathematics of an hypothesis linking electromagnetism to mass proposed by the author.


In collaboration with K-el Abraham, the author of Tetryonic Theory, the experimental results were analysed at a quantum level to find an explanation of those experimental results.
K-el Abraham analysed the quantum forces created by the coil system within the object and concluded that:


  1. Positive charge mass energy momenta within the object resulted in an asymmetry of Planck charge quanta. This state increased the mass of the object.
  2. Negative charge mass energy momenta asymmetry within the object decreased mass.
  3. The linear vector force created by the coil in the object has a direct proportion to its mass.


The linear vector force in 3. above did not cause motion of the object and resulted in a variation of mass, manifested as weight in the experimental results. When Newton's F = ma is applied, that force which did not cause motion was chanelled into the form of mass energy and was thus conserved.


These results, along with the inescapable logic of Tetryonic Theory, leave no room for doubt that there is a direct connection between the energies of electricity, magnetism and mass
The results also confirm that mass is not the same as matter. These conclusions are similarly indicated by Tetryonic Theory. Details of experiments and apparatus, including a photo of it, are contained in the post titled 'This is Cutting Edge Physics II' at michaeljbull.blogspot.com .


Tetryonic Theory has the potential to advance 21st century physics and technology and, like Relativity Theory, originates from new thought outside of mainstream science.
