Once the energy exhausts, the motion of the flywheel reverses and the balls are free to fall down.Geomag Gravity: Leonardos Machine GunAldo Cavini2018-07-03 | A model of Leonardo's Machine Gun, built with 8 Geomag magnetic cannonsGeomag Gravity: Reaction EngineAldo Cavini2018-06-30 | A model showing Newton's action-reaction law at work.

In particular:
- Gravity: driving force which puts the Coils into rotation (00:15), Linear Pendulum (02:09);
- Magnetic repulsion: Contactless Gears (00:25), Crocodile (01:52);
- Magnetic attraction: Stop-and-go (2:18), Magnetic Cannon (02:35), Catch-the-ball (02:48).
In addition, other mechanical phenomena are shown:
- two kind of Ball Bearings, with 8 balls (00:00), and 3+1 balls (00:05);
- Balance (02:00);
- Centrifugal force (pin drop, 02:20).Magnetic Permeability at workAldo Cavini2017-08-27 | A little Geomag Mechanics model showing an interesting effect related to Magnetic Permeability.

Una dimostrazione pratica e teorica della legge di Lenz.Geomag 4 Kids: Angular Momentum TransferAldo Cavini2012-01-05 | The interactions between the magnetic poles work like elastic collisions: when two items collide, the velocity of one of them with respect to the other is reversed. In this model, the "collisions" always happen between a rotating item, which stops; and a still one that starts moving (apart from friction problems) at the same speed: the result is the angular momentum have completely been transferred.Geomag 4 Kids: John Harrisons H1 ClockAldo Cavini2011-12-18 | This model is inspired by John Harrison's H1 clock. The balls in the middle of the red rods are magnetic poles: their attraction guarantees the perfect synchronization of the two pendulums.Geomag 4 Kids: Simplest Linear PendulumAldo Cavini2011-12-07 | ...Geomag 4 kids: Marble Machine 2Aldo Cavini2011-11-21 | ...Geomag 4 Kids: Marble MachineAldo Cavini2011-11-17 | ...Geomag 4 Kids: Catch the ball !Aldo Cavini2011-11-05 | ...Geomag 4 Kids: Wait a... momentum!Aldo Cavini2011-11-01 | This model shows the "angular momentum conservation" law at work. The rotor accelerates the rotor when it narrows, rather like a spinning ice skater.
Questo modello illustra la legge della "conservazione del momento angolare": il rotore acquista velocita' al rotore quando la sua geometria si stringe, come fanno i pattinatori su ghiaccio quando girano su se stessi.Geomag 4 Kids: Ferris WheelAldo Cavini2011-10-31 | ...Geomag 4 kids: simple Hanging Pan ScaleAldo Cavini2011-10-29 | ...Geomag 4 kids: Torsion PendulumAldo Cavini2011-10-28 | ...Geomag 4 kids: Simple Inverted PendulumAldo Cavini2011-10-26 | 10 magnetic fields keep the pendulum upright.Geomag 4 kids: Marbles GameAldo Cavini2011-10-23 | ...Geomag Mechanics: Marble Machine 2Aldo Cavini2011-10-08 | A Marble machine running four ping pong balls, built using some (home made) drilled balls and axlesGeomag Mechanics: Marble Machine 1Aldo Cavini2011-09-30 | A Marble machine running two ping pong balls, built using some (home made) drilled balls and axlesThreaded SpiralAldo Cavini2011-04-22 | How to draw a spiral with an envelope of stright lines
