I recently made a post which described stimulating florescent bulbs with
high voltage electric fields generated form a series resonance and then
postulating that placing these bulbs at right angles to the magnetic fields
involved in the same series resonance might obtain an output at the end of
the bulbs. The problem with the construction lies in the fact that although
the electric and magnetic fields are at right angles, The direction of the
intended output was not in a direction that was perpendicular to BOTH the
magnetic AND electric fields. As one can see from the post the bulbs are
inserted parallel to the magnetic field thus one should not expect an
output. This was what I was trying to show as the error of my thinking. I
actually spent the time to test this and didnt realize until I finished
that the design was based on faulty thinking.
