The Most Efficient Source of Energy

Introducing readers to an idea of another source of energy, the force of gravity, that has yet to be tapped. This explains the availability of gravity and its resourcefulness.

As the cost of energy rises especially those derived from fossil fuels, many governments are compelled to establish programs for alternative sources of energy. A major management concern while developing energy resources is the responsibility of human management over the world's environment. Engineers and researchers attempt to design engines that will operate from something other than petroleum and coal products. Increased use of solar, wind, thermal, ethanol devices and the re-emergence of nuclear power are at the crux of what are being manipulated for our use each day. Though these alternatives offer additional methods to fuel our energy consumption, each of these has their restrictions, limitations and dangers upon their use and resourcefulness.

The purpose of this article is to inform there is another source of energy we have yet to tap; a source of energy that is constant and unfettered by factors such as its availability. It is not hampered by proximity with the Sun, the direction of the wind, the quantity and consumption of the fuel, or our skin peeling off due to coming near it, or our hair falling out and our dying horribly from overexposure. This new energy source is infinitely replaceable and will never run out…at least not on this Earth. The source of this new energy actually has been around almost forever; yet unnoticed. There is a very powerful force that holds this very world and other planets together. That energy keeps everything planted to the ground and we rarely ever think about it. That force is gravity.

Scientists and engineers know the pull of gravity exerts a continual force of 9.8 dynes upon every form of mass on the surface of this planet and the force varies on other satellites. The force of gravity is constant in availability, consistency and can never be consumed. It is present at all periods of time each day and it should not create any impact on the environment because it is a natural force. The only restraints and problems that could become associated with the use of gravity as an energy source would be those we might invent with our devices to utilize this energy. While researchers vaunt ahead to enrich their projects on the energy alternatives mentioned earlier, more recognition should be dedicated to the use of the force of gravity as a source of energy.

Certainly many will be skeptical about the use of gravity as an energy source. They may even believe that its energy can not be harnessed. But it can. Despite much of the skepticism, we can use the force of gravity as a source of energy. Despite whatever the doubt, gravity engines can and must be devised and manufactured. Such devices will function constantly without the need to refuel. Such devices shall help us to embark into a new realm of technology that the skeptics could hardly be capable of imagining. The designs to come from manipulating the force of gravity will be as with all technology, within the limitations of our ingenuity. It is we who must open our minds to the possibility of doing something we have never before done.

my question is..
What is the most efficient energy soucres in the states of Australia?
#2 by William H. Gilmore, Jul 14, 2008
I am delighted to get a response from someone interested in Australia. To my knowledge they have made significant progress with alternative energy technology i.e. solar and wind. Other nations make their concerted efforts to advance in alternatives.

willium,

I would like to provide you a new thought which can change present concept of potential energy.

1. Two equal amount of forces in opposite direction at a given time may not move the OBJECT as per third law of Newton. This is horizontal pull like tug-of-war. Here 'x' amount of energy is lost at one end, and as OBJECT is not moved in either direction opposite end may also have lost equal amount of energy i.e. 'x'.
OBJECT is not moved and total loss of energy is 'x'+'x'='2x'.

2. Now let you hold an OBJECT at one meter height having 10kgs of weight for a given period of time this is a vertical position comparing to the tug-of-war. You are constantly loosing your energy with passage of time. As time increases you loose more energy and another person would hold the OBJECT in the same state of position, he would also loose energy with passage of time.....Now as per (1.) above OBJECT is not moved and equal amount of energy is lost from opposite ends. If we measure amount of energy 'x' used to hold the OBJECT at given height during given time then it would be same amount of energy used from other end i.e. earth due to effect of GRAVITY.

Thus we can say that Gravity is source of energy and calculation of Potential energy (mgh) would be function of time i.e. mght.

As this is now linked with time it is infinite. Gone is Gone you can utilize the present and future is unlimited.

You can send me any comment and can also use my thoughts with reference to my name.

Best wishes for time to come.

the article said nothing about braking newtons laws. it just suggests people look for and try to create a device that transfers the force of gravity to the \"other side.\"

to every one:
a damn, that holds back water is using the force of gravity that pulls the water down hill threw the turbine to produce electricity.

this web site is the best idea i\'ve found
and i am trying to build this.
i am not a member of the site. but i think this will be the way to go.
