http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x6ct.htm http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x242.htm http://videolectures.net/ In
his lecture, at 3 minutes into the lecture, Lewin shows the illegal current
spreading out across the capacitor plate. At 11 minutes 20, the illegal
sideways current has disappeared. If
any professor mentions this current, he loses his job. "Modern
Physics" is dogma, not science. Lewin mentioned it, but glossed it over.
He was later disgraced for other reasons. Ivor

Dear Professor Walter H G Lewin, In your MIT lecture 18 at http://videolectures.net/mit802s02_lewin_lec18/ [at 5 minutes into it] you drew lines showing electric current spreading out over the capacitor plate. That is, you mentioned that electric current flows across the capacitor plate, at right angles to the main flow. However, this was just in passing, and you did not discuss the magnetic field which must result in the horizontal direction, using Ampere's Law, or its effect on the use of Kirchhoff's First Law at the entry point into the capacitor - see Wikipedia; "At any point in an electrical circuit that does not represent a capacitor plate, the sum of currents flowing towards that point is equal to the sum of currents flowing away from that point.". This lateral flow of electric current had been overlooked for over a century, until I pointed it out in 1978 at http://www.ivorcatt.org/icrwiworld78dec1.htm . Please comment on the implications of this current as discussed by me in 1978. I also treat it at http://www.ivorcatt.com/411.htm In your lecture, you drew parallel lines indicating that the electric field in the capacitor is uniform. http://www.electromagnetism.demon.co.uk/3615.htm http://www.ivorcatt.org/icz014.htm . Please comment on my comments here. Ivor Catt.14 May 2009 21:05 @@@@@@@@@@@@ Reply within half an hour. ----- Original Message ----- Kirchhoff's current rule does not apply for a given point on the capacitor
plates. At one point in time charges can be flowing to a point and at another
point in time charge can be flowing away from that point. @@@@@@@@@ I'm afraid not. Ivor Catt. 14 May 2009 21.52 @@@@@@@@ 28 May 2009 Dear Professor Lewin,
http://www.ivorcatt.org/icz014.htm
. Please comment on my comments here. @@@@@@@@@@@@@ Dear Professor Lewin, I look forward to your reply to my second email, dated 28 May 2009 Ivor Catt 9 June 2009 4 January 2010. Still no reply. But on the www it says that he replies to all his emails. His Wikipedia entry says; “Lewin personally responded to hundreds of e-mail requests that he received per year from UWTV viewers”. – Ivor Catt. @@@@@@@@@@@@@ Correspondence with Ian Montgomery, 1 July 2009, about Lewin's failure to reply to my second email @@@@@@@@@@@@@ 8.8.2019 The cover-up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ZYFYUFRblM Now, at 18 minutes, the current clearly travels sideways. More clearly than in his previous lecture. Here we see a shambolic attempt to deal with my email to him asking him about the sideways current, mentioned in 1978 and ignored, by him and by everyone else. http://www.ivorcatt.org/icrwiworld78dec1.htm Then here is his attempt to handle it, 30 or more years later. See Heaviside here; http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/x857.htm “If you have got anything new …. “ http://www.ivorcatt.co.uk/95b.htm
