2. The Fundamentals Of Warp Drive Design

3. The Need for Speed As we have seen B fields propagate through paper clips differently than air. Namely they find it easier to permeate the metal than air. The same go for E fields which see less resistance in metals than air. So, how are they related?

4. Dare To Be Square! We know that changing B gives rise to a changing E. And that a changing E gives rise to changing B. Further more we know that B is perpendicular to E. B E

5. Dare To Be Square! We discussed cross products and know that B X E = F Where F can be a real force, EMF, I or velocity B E F

6. Dare To Be Square! When we begin to add time to the diagram interesting things happen. B f(t) E f(t) t Arbitrary small area A

7. Back to The Flux Capacitor The “arbitrary small area” returns us to the idea of field flux.

8. Back to The Flux Capacitor What happens when we begin to play with the units inside the squares?

9. F = qvB I’m curious about the v (velocity) in the above expression.

10. F = qvB But the velocity of what?????????

11. F = qvB But the velocity of what????????? Previously is was the velocity of a physical particle like an electron, proton or doubly ionized helium nucleus, namely an alpha particle. But what if there’s no charged particle? Perhaps v is the velocity of something else. Back to how B and E propagate through a vacuum or free space.

12. B We can measure, using various instruments, how a magnetic filed permeates a vacuum. μ 0 = 4π x 10 -7 T · m A This is called “the permeability of free space” and it’s a physical constant of the known universe.

13. E We can measure, using various instruments, how an electric filed is permitted to pass through a vacuum. ε 0 = 8.85 x 10 -12 C 2 _ N · m 2 This is called “the permittivity of free space” and it’s a physical constant of the known universe.

14. Pardon My Derivation Can the values of ε & μ – which define the fabric of space – be used to somehow get back to v? Expanding the Tesla Out to Base Units……..

15. Pardon My Derivation

17. The speed of light is an E B function that is tied to very nature of the fabric of the Universe!!!!
