Meissner effect and future application to the hoverboard -- Ideas?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on a project involving magnetic levitation for a hoverboard based on the Meissner effect and superconductivity. Key considerations include surface and board materials, maximum load, hovering height, and the operational duration of the superconductor before overheating. The project faces challenges in obtaining proprietary information from existing hoverboard developers. There is a debate about the necessity of incorporating probability into the project, with some participants questioning its relevance to the exact calculations of the Meissner effect. The conversation emphasizes the need for optimization and anticipating unexpected challenges during the project's execution.

I'm working on a project of magnetic levitation of the lexus hoverboard
Which is based on Meissner effect and suprconductivity and I have to look for contraint, probability, choice, and optimization in this project, i really find a little bit tough where to start this, so if anyone have any idea could help
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Did you check how they did it? That should directly lead to some questions about the surface material, the board material, the maximal load, the hovering height, how long it runs before the superconductor gets too warm, and similar things.
 
Yes i wanted to get some information from them but they said thise ingormation are not for public. However, My plan now is to compare supraconductors materiaks to choise the bedt if them, search how they the magetic floor under the hoverboard, etc , But my problem is that i didn't where to put probability, because as you know Meissner magnetic field is an exact calculation.
 
Why do you want to "put probability" anywhere?
 
As i said in my project i have to talk about many things, and one of them is probability and the unexcpectable in your project that's mean for example what could be unexpected during the experience or in real time so we can avoid it and try to get to optimization
 
I don't understand your post.

Who says that you have to include probabilities of what, where? If you didn't set that as goal yourself, what exactly was the phrasing of the problem statement?
 
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
Thread 'Correct statement about a reservoir with an outlet pipe'
The answer to this question is statements (ii) and (iv) are correct. (i) This is FALSE because the speed of water in the tap is greater than speed at the water surface (ii) I don't even understand this statement. What does the "seal" part have to do with water flowing out? Won't the water still flow out through the tap until the tank is empty whether the reservoir is sealed or not? (iii) In my opinion, this statement would be correct. Increasing the gravitational potential energy of the...
