James: Umm, Sir the two would work against each other. It would have the net | |||
result of no beams... | |||
COGUD: Reminds me of rule 208, sometimes the only thing more dangerous than a | |||
question is an answer, James what would happen if we put a third tractor beam | |||
into the mix, would that counteract the counteraction? | |||
JAMES: I don't actually know... As far as I'm aware its never been tested... But | |||
it shouldn't work according to know physics. The two beams don't work as they | |||
are each operating at different frequencys, so the two cancel. A third should do | |||
the same, unfortunately the beams can't be the same frequency due to the | |||
Uncertainty Principal, and a Hesinberg compensator would also negate the effect | |||
of the tractor beam. | |||
COGUD: ::Turning to the Vulcan at ops:: James, remind me of rule 111 if we do | |||
get the Achilles out of orbit ::Smiling:: | |||
JAMES: Frengi? I still haven't got around to reading those.... | |||
COGUD: Treat people in your debt like family... exploit them ::grinning:: | |||
JAMES: ... Fascinating. | |||
((OCC Note, the above physics lecture is actually true, there is experimental | |||
work on attraction beams, and there are already repulsion beams that work by | |||
energizing electrons with exact quantum frequencys!))</nowiki> | |||
