Balloon Car Experiment Newton’s First Law of Motion states that when an object is set in motion‚ it will remain in motion until acted on by an outside force. Theoretically‚ this could mean you could travel at the same speed forever in one direction‚ right? The reason we don’t see this happen is because of friction. The force of friction is the resistance to motion that is in the opposite direction of the traveling object. This is why if you roll a ball on the ground it eventually stops. Friction

Investigatory Projects in Physics | Repulsorlifts as a Method of Stable Magnetic Levitation | Repulsorlifts were used in the study to find out if they can be used to replace the wheels of a conventional car. It was hypothesized that it will be able to lift a car using magnetic repulsion forces. The different magnets were tested individually with the usual tests for magnetic strength‚ size‚ and temperature increase‚ which were done in the preliminary testing. The prototype road and car were
