NO, no.. t isnt working because too much friction. It's like 3 times friction and one times generation. The entire thing goes in the wrong way. We have to turn the generator around, but then it's gonna be 3 frictions pointing in one way and one friction and one generating force going in anothe way. So it's impossibkle. We need at least another friction r bucket of water or another gen erator to have odd number of forces and then we can make it spin. Also, the thing called generator is actually a microwave in dissguise.

This isn't troll physics. It's not that it wouldn't work in principle, it's just that there are practical problems.

First of all, that's only if the upper car was *accelerating*.

More importantly, it's not given as a way to get unlimited energy-free transportation, but as a way to pass cars without needing another lane.

It could cost you something to climb over another car, and it could cost you something to get climbed over, but that's not the problem. The problem is that all of the cars would be much heavier and more expensive, and people would be crashing all the time attempting the climb-over pass.

That it is infeasible with the specific type of magnet illustrated does not mean it is impossible to do with any type of magnetic device.

It doesn't imply a violation of conservation of energy because either generating the magnetic field while on the Earth's surface or pulling the magnet down to the Earth's surface would take at least as much energy as the gravitational potential energy difference between the "on Earth" and "in space" positions, and the energy you could extract by collapsing the magnetic field would be lower in space than on Earth by that same gravitational potential energy difference.

Physics more serious.
