True; but the energy it takes to get over the bump doesn't depend on the speed of rotation. It's the same whether you do it fast or slow.
This is the error in your reasoning. Assuming the kick is an EM pulse generating, say, a 1 Tesla field, the duration of the pulse and subsequent energy decreases with higher RPM. At the limit (excluding inductance), the pulse width is zero; hence, Jones post on this subject. Terry
