I’ve written a few times that

Force is occult
Force never set any pendulum in motion
Cavendish experiment is not an experiment

Let me explain the last item one more time:
1. Cavendish builds a pendulum with a given period and measures the given period.
2. What Cavendish measures is already given.
Given as in known. If you know it you don’t […]

Gravitational physics is physicists’ never ending quest to save Newton’s authority. All astronomical calculations are done by using Kepler’s Rule branded as Newton’s laws.1
As long as physics exists physicists will call Kepler’s Rule Newton’s laws. Therefore, it is not possible to prove that planets are not moved by Newton’s force. Physicists corrupted the old science […]

After writing to Perimeter Institute and Templeton Foundation here’s my proposal to National Science Foundation. In this case I am emphasizing experimental focus of Freedom of Science. Ninety per cent1 of Doctors of Philosophy licensed to practice research physics2 are paid by NSF. For instance, NSF paid Ed Witten to write about Magic, Mystery and […]

Wikipedia has a nice Cavendish experiment page. There is a reference to a scale drawing of the pendulum. They raised the floor to give Cavendish enough room to make observations. As seen from the section drawing the telescope is too low and it would have been very uncomfortable to make observations.

It no longer matters where the information is stored. In times when information was expensive the monopoly controlling the production and distribution defined the container of information as a brand and endowed it with authority to increase the value of the brand. This, in turned, defined the value of the information. This is still true […]

Physicists dismiss my articles questioning force, Newtonism and mythological Newton as historical subtleties better left to historians. Concepts of physics are either legal or illegal; they don’t have history. You cannot do physics by arguments based on historical facts. Applied to physics history can only produce polemics. 
At the root of these objections there is the […]

I was wondering what kind of theory the Standard Model is. Assuming that theory and model are synonyms I drew this tree starting with Model:
   
According to this there are two species of models: rule based and simulation.
I thought there were three kinds of simulations: Axiomatic, algorithmic and trigonometric.
Then, I realized that axiom should be at the […]

Tommaso Dorigo advises to approach orthodoxy on a negotiation basis. (See comments to this post.)
This is great advice.
One possible problem with it is that holders of orthodoxies usually would not be open to negotiating their orthodoxy.1 This is compounded by the fact that the only exchange a Doctor will have with a non-doctor is teacher-student relationship. No […]

Cavendish experiment 2

Unlike String Theorists I have a testable claim.  I claim that force does not exist. Even more specifically I say that Cavendish pendulum did not move under the influence of Newton’s force.
For me the proof is simple:

Force is occult 
Occult does not exist
Therefore, force does not exist.

Physicists do not agree with the above reasoning.
In physics only what […]

Cavendish experiment

 
I finally computed the linear and non-linear solutions for the Cavendish experiment. The equation of motion is:
 
This is linearized as1
 
The solution for initial condition t=0 and theta=0 is
 
C = GMmd
This is what I used to plot the linear line. Thanks again to Jean-Marc Gulliet for obtaining the solution in Maple and Mathematica. 
Non-linear solution was supplied by Robert Israel […]
