762.00 Paired Swimmers

762.01 The molecules near the surface of the net are coursing in chord- ally ricocheting great-circle patterns around the net’s inner surface. Because every action has its reaction, it would be possible to pair all the molecules so that they would behave as, for instance, two swimmers who dive into a swimming tank from opposite ends, meet in the middle, and then, employing each other’s inertia, shove off from each other’s feet in opposite directions. We have an acceleration effectiveness equal to what they experience when shoving off from the tank’s “solid” wall. When you are swimming, you dive from one end of the tank, which gives you a little acceleration into the water. When you get to the end of the tank, you can put up your feet, double up your body, and shove off from the wall again. Likewise, two swimmers can meet in the middle of the tank, double up their bodies, put the soles of their feet together, and thrust out in opposite directions. The phenomenon is similar to the discontinuous compression and continuous tension of geodesics. The molecules are in motion and have to have some kind of a reaction set; each molecule caroming around, great-circularly hitting glancing blows, then making a chord and then another glancing blow, has to have another molecule to shove off from. They are the ones that are accounting for all the work. Each one would have to be balanced as a balanced pair of forces. We discover that all we are accounting for can be paired. So there is a net of arrows outwardly in the middle of the chord pulling against the net of arrows pointing inwardly.

762.02 The pattern indicates that we could have each and all of the paired molecules bounce off their partners and dart away in opposite directions, with each finally hitting the balloon net and pushing it outwardly as they each angled in glancing blows in new directions, but always toward the net at another point where, in critical repelling proximities, they would all pair off nonsimultaneously but at high frequency of re-repellment shove-offs to ricochet off the net at such a high frequency of events as to keep the net stretched outwardly in all directions. This represents what the molecules of balloon-confined gases are doing. With discontinuous compression and continuous tension, we can make geodesic structures function in the same way.

Fig. 762.01 Chordal Ricochet Pattern in Stretch Action of a Balloon Net: A gas balloon’s exterior tension “net” has the shape that it has because some of the molecules are too large to escape and, crowded by the other molecules, are hitting the balloon. But the molecules do not huddle together at the center and then simultaneously explode outwardly to hit the balloon skin in one omnidirectionally outbound wave. The molecules near the surface are coursing in chordally ricocheting patterns all around the inner net’s surface. I therefore saw that because every action has its reactionit would be possible to pair all the molecules so that they would behave as can two swimmers who dive into a swimming tank from opposite ends, meet in the middle and then, employing each other’s inertia, shove off from each other’s feet in opposite directions.
