Well I got dizzy and tired running around the circle so I stopped at the BROWN BOX INN and had a couple of brews

How does force propagate?

DUH! By Yoda.

I assume you mean the electomotive force since we're talking about electricity. Electromagnetic induction produces electromotive force through magnetic flux such as the spinning of the magnets in a stator flywheel around the coils. Propagation of forces is the dissemination of any force, even mechanical, and I would think dissemination of electromotive force would be along an entire circuit through the physical medium (wires). Electromagnetic phenomena is of course not limited to just electricity and accounts for the visible spectrum and radio waves. The propagation of these forces is more complex involving far reaching magnetic fields that the particles travel along. No, I did not just Google all of that and some of it could be wrong. I've read up a lot on electrical generation since I got into scooters and I've always been a science buff. I did take some physics a long...long...time ago. Rich

Mostly correct except I meant pure force. Not electromotive. Gravitic force. If you can answer that, I'll split the Nobel with you.

And here I was always under the impression that scooters/mopeds where nothing more than simplified motorcycles. Now I find out they are in reality overly complicated bicycles.

You mean gravitational waves Andy? They propagate through the curvature of spacetime. I'm not sure what you're driving at. RV, you don't have a gravity drive on your bicycle motor thingie??!! I'm kidding, I think those are really cool...what is it again? ....I'm kidding!

[Guitarman]

Oy Vey. Here let me hand you a new paddle to replace the first one you broke in your self-flagulation. LOL

Never have a technical discussion in physics with someone who thinks quantum mechanics is what Q does for Mr. Bond.

Bashan that's an 'e-Moto Ridge 450' 24 volt with pedal assist. But it's dead and I think it's the spindle motor. When I rotate the wheel forward it goes crunch, crunch, crunch and only vibrates and humms under power. Oh well it was a good three years.
