Re: Gravitation Force Between Rotating Solenoids

Previously posted: the rotation of the Magnetic B Field should result in a small E field due to the acceleration v^2/r of the field. I.e., the tangential velocity vector is constantly changing directions. Hence, two rotating solenoids should attract or repel on another with a force

Hi Fred. I googled and still disagree with the author, a self exciting homopolar generator can contain no permanent magnet material and yet when spun, will generate a current. The authors explanation that a spinning electromagnet cannot generate the E field seems just plain wrong to me based on
