Are cars like the Tesla Model S the future?

Wow u truly are an idiot... Reread that quote...a fly wheel has a magnet on it and a base point that is stationary... Thus creating power as they pass one another...like a generator. You dumb fuck. I love how all u fags sit behind your computer...all day. All night. And act like u actually kno shit. Fuck you and your monarch like, "proper" English on a pot forum...and I'll stick wit the broken Midwest slang...u crumpet eating fuck.
With my erection.

Or a better answer is with centripetal force, once you get it going, which could be done easily with a simple flick of a wrist, you have continuous power. Ya know... like a watch. That little thing you were on your wrist.

Just because you are not able to understand how something can work does not mean it can't.
You will have to look far and wide to find a better combination of stupidity, complete incognizance that the stupidity is theirs, while exhibiting smugness and condescension during said stupidity. Harkens back to the UncleBuck missing zeros debacle of 2013.

These two geniuses have cracked the perpetual motion problem, right here in front of us. Flywheels, who fucking knew?

Canna Rabbit claims that Tesla's are suckling off the government teet and it's somehow President Obama's fault.

I have showed you that Tesla is not in fact suckling off the government teet, was not started by the government and was not seeded initially by their money.

I have also showed that the program that did fund Tesla later in it's life was created in the fall of 2008, prior to President Obama's election.

You and Canna are not good at Faux Noise spin. Really not good at all. Maybe if you had blonde hair and big tits you may be able to convince somebody...

Whoops.
you rang?:mrgreen:

How big of a 'watch' will I need to power my truck? Don't forget, it's carrying a wheeler and pulling a trailer.


Or, you could pull into a charging terminal every six miles.


The concept of a flywheel-powered bus was developed and brought to fruition during the 1940s by Oerlikon (of Switzerland), with the intention of creating an alternative to battery-electric buses for quieter, lower-frequency routes, where full overhead-wire electrification could not be justified.
Rather than carrying an internal combustion engine or batteries, or connecting to overhead powerlines, a gyrobus carries a large flywheel that is spun at up to 3,000 RPM by a "squirrel cage" motor.[SUP][1][/SUP] Power for charging the flywheel was sourced by means of three booms mounted on the vehicle's roof, which contacted charging points located as required or where appropriate (at passenger stops en route, or at terminals, for instance). To obtain tractive power, capacitors would excite the flywheel's charging motor so that it became a generator, in this way transforming the energy stored in the flywheel back into electricity. Vehicle braking was electric, and some of the energy was recycled back into the flywheel, thereby extending its range.

What are you debating? Tesla is doing quite well, they are working on creating a more consumer friendly vehicle. GM has paid back most of its debt and the rest the government owns as stake in the company, as is doing quite well in the market.

I do agree, that government really should not be putting their hands in private business, however the two cases you provide are not good examples. One was needed because our economy was at stake, the other was a BUSH administration program. Why weren't you complaining then?
and to further the point, the GM bailout actually started negotiations while bush was still president..

flywheels use inertia to stabilize engines and smooth the operation of the transmission, they are NOT a solution to fuel or energy needs.

the copy/paste above is not talking about flywheels powering the vehicles, but rather, giving smooth variations in speed. this job is handled by a complex and expensive computerized power distribution system using electrical resistance throttling in the chevy volt, and a few other electric cars but it is NOT the source of the power. it merely provides a smoother ride and better speed control.

THATS why flywheels are being experimented with, not as a power source.

Protip: making a flywheel lighter is counter productive since they operate on inertia. less mass means less inertia

Years ago I worked for Garrett Airresearch. they had a flywheel R&D program that worked well for trains. They would spin the wheel up with a small diesel engine and it would drive the train.

NO, you get no more energy out of the wheel than is put in, however, one cannot replenish energy to an internal combustion engine through braking, but you can with a flywheel - energy saved. The wheel stores energy at the mechanical level rather than at the chemical level - more efficient, the flywheel produces a minimum amount of waste energy in the form of heat - another plus.

But yes, more mass, more energy, while there is a flywheel in every internal combustion car it is as is stated, a way to even the rotation of the crankshaft. Flywheels are not practical in cars as cars are idle or not in use more time than they are and flywheels are not perfect energy storage devices.

Funny, that didn't LOOK like an actual quote. It looks like you typed it out yourself and even got my username wrong. Do you really want me to break out the simple division transcript and the missing zeros debacle of 2013?

it's actually .3% if you know how decimals and rounding works.


your math sucks.

Great rounding, but your answer is 100 times too large. 4000/150 million = .0000266 that does not equate to .3% if you round it up you get .0027%


Decimal place only moves 2 spots because the hundredths( a percentage) only has 2 zeroes.


You suck at math, and when expressing percentages you go to the hundredths place unless its even less, you don't "round up".


edit: You would think with all the many times you have screwed up your math that you would double check these things. Not everyone was destined to graduate from University though.


The Irony is so thick you could spoon it out of your last post.

He also sucks at simple division. No talking your way out of this one UB, straight up wrong. You are now officially the very LAST member on RIU that should ever correct another member's math. How the fuck you actually managed to pass Cheebs in that foot race is beyond me.


Man, that's gotta sting. Comin' all condescending and shit, only to drop your dick in the dirt.


WOOOOOOOPS!!!

4000/1500000 = .00266666666


expressed as a percentage, that is 0.266666666%, or 0.3% for those of us who like to round.


1/10 = .1 = 10%
1/100 = .01 = 1%
4k/1.5 million = .00266666 = .26666%


your problem is that you fucked up the first step and it all fell apart right there.

lol. you are stupider than stupid when it gets high on stupid and chases it with a shot straight stupid while snorting stupid.

it's close enough to the number of insured.


maybe.


really, all that matters is that nodrama fucked up his math for the second time this week and needed me to correct him.

Holy shit, out of the frying pan and into the fire!!!!


150 million is 150 followed by SIX ZEROES not five like in your example.


Please stop before losing the respect of even Cheezy, for gods sake please!!!!

that's why they would go into overdrive mode to find a bullshit reason to rescind, dummy.


you're as bad at common sense as you are at simple math.

shit. i fucked up the first step.

That creamy smooth irony just turned into rough and rocky irony, the kind that is hard to swallow.

OMG, so condescending and so undeserving of fostering said condescension. You couldn't pour water out of a boot with instructions on the heel.
Good times, good times. I'll just post this in reply to EVERY post you make going forward, just like you do to everyone else.

Clown shoes.

as long as they boys are fresh bathed and after 30 minutes a man's skin smells soooooo guuuuuuud:wink:
I shower twice on weekdays and thrice on weekends. After I do man things like build stuff and shoot guns I shower. I brush twice a day, and I get cleanings twice a year. I exercise and get my nails did. I trim my lovely man parts. I am well groomed and lay pipe.
