If you want, i sell you one clearly magnetic perpetuum machine. It´s easy and fully working device. I show you this, you can buy it. But idea is not cheap. Do you want it?
I rather plant trees, turn them into charcoal, create a machine that will plant trees for me, make more charcoal, then make a machine that will cut trees for me, get infnite charcoal, then get a machine that will burn trees for me for charcoal. FREE INFINITE CHARCOAL! Perputum Charcoulum.
The way I see it, we should build a Perpetual motion machine of the 5th kind. If it succeds, we have a perpetually working machine. If it fails, we discovered the 5th law of thermodynamics. It is a win-win enterprise.
The Laws of Thermodynamics: 1.) You can't win or lose. You can only break even. 2.) You can't break even except at Absolute Zero. 3.) You can't get to Absolute Zero.
The fun part that gets looked over is efficiency.. the energy gradient of the modern car compared to the first internal combustion engine is so vastly different is like watching gravity driven power compared to the space shuttle. I'm amazed at how they do not fire up imaginations with the challenge to build things that take much less to perform better
You can approach an efficiency of unity by getting closer and closer. Going beyond unity to actually get anything out of it isn't natural, sorry, won't ever happen.
Yeah, the modern ICE car has gotten all the way up to somewhere between 25% and 35% efficient at turning gasoline energy into motion. Not bad for nearly 150 years of refinement.
Ah, yes, zero point energy. The guy I worked for 20 years ago was an analog engineer and he also was a patent examiner on the side. I remember long conversations on the phone where he would have to carefully explain to various inventors why their energy extraction devices wouldn't work. They tried to avoid saying the word 'perpetual', but basically that is what their patent applications usually amounted to. Reverse-entropic devices.... for example, trying to extract usable energy from johnson noise, and stuff like that. There were inventions that passed his desk that did produce energy... just not very much, and most of the inventors didn't understand physics well enough to know where the energy was actually coming from... but thought they had something wonderful when what they really had was a really inefficient solar panel or thermal gradient device. -Matt
I almost feel these quacks should be celebrated a bit instead of ridiculed. It takes a lot of effort, imagination and drive to create these things. However their creations unfortunately just add to the anti-science wave of moon landings, flat earths, global warming, antivax, etc.
Every once in a while I go down the TH-cam "free energy" rabbit hole. On rare occasions I can get someone to understand there is no energy in magnets to extract. Mostly, they just freak out and call me names. I only wish "big oil" would pay me to point out the obvious in comment sections.
Yeah but you probably didn't try attaching flywheels to the electromagnets, that's what did it. The laws of thermodynamics will stop being true if I add enough physically confusing pieces to my grand design.
There is a third category which is neither thermal or PV, it goes back to crystal sets and you can get a measurable amount of power from a truckload of antennae and tank circuits with a cats whisker type diode. Basically you can get a few microwatts out of each one.
Perpetual gravity can be harnessed . An under water wheel using 12 airbags with 12 weights outside of them. Can be made to turn using gravity alone. Only enough air to fill 6 of the bags. Weights will move towards gravity's pull = from the top towards the axial. = from the bottom away from the axial. Taking air with them through the wheel from the top to the bottom bag.(accordion style). All the full air bags are on the same side. Gravity will spin the wheel... till patrs ware out.

what about toasts with nothing on them... will they land on the darker or the lighter side of the roasted bread (my hypothesis is it land on the lighter side/it doesn't matter enough to change it's gravitationnal pattern, in order to fall on the heavier side)
Just to further my own comment, put an image on the shirt of a popular perpetual motion machine design and then write "Close, but no perpetually burning cigar" underneath the image or on the back of a shirt. Thatd be pretty cool and comical at the same time.
@@seemlyme I'm not entirely certain how you hope to assemble this. Or why you think this would work indefinitely. It is possible to make the float of a fill valve work in reverse, so to speak, that it closes up a valve the lower the fill line gets. But then once you get past that it becomes dubious. Firstly, this is the wrong type of valve for such a process as, the second the moment the inverted fill valve whose valve is shut off by the float as the water level lowers as opposed to rises, the bladder will begin to fill again. It would be better to simply let the pressure between the gravity-fed water tank and the pressure within the bladder equalize, and then seal it off with a valve that isn't dependent on the level of the water, or seal off the bladder at some semi-arbitrary point prior to the bladder bursting with an independent valve. But then we get the issue of attempting to spray the water back into the tank. As the bladder begins to drain, the pressure on the water will shrink and any free-jetted water will have a weaker and weaker stream until it can no longer be fed back into the tank. "The manual actions should be automated and repeated then perpetual motion" As the machine you've proposed doesn't have any way to automate them, you will need to automate them from an outside source which is energy loss. Additionally, this machine is what this video described as a "type 3 perpetual motion device" where it can theoretically feed itself indefinitely, but does no work outside of that. The water being sprayed through the air or the water being fed through to the bladder would need to interact with an outside system in order for it to do work. The failings of your proposal are: 1) Improper valve usage 2) dependence on consistent pressure in a variable pressure system 3) It is a perpetual motion machine that does no work besides to feed itself. 4) It cannot even feed itself.
To set something permanently spinning, simply strap a slice of bread and jam, which we all know will land jam side down, to a cat’s back which we all know always falls paws down therefore two opposing forces fighting each other for superiority.

@@LoveDoctorNL how do you figure? He had JPL labs at NASA examine it and they agree it works. 2 electrical engineers from the patent office agreed it works...
Smart as he was, Groucho left school at the age of 12. His early 20th century audiences were also unlikely to know what perpetual motion machines were; what is special about the idea. It can be hard to appreciate how ignorant people of the past were of simple mechanics; certainly they did not know laws of thermodynamics. Whoever made that joke was certainly more modern.

The ebb and flow of tides is the easiest macro scale oscillating energy system. Why is everyone trying to chase what the moon and earth already provides?
@@misaelolvera2996 Nobody has made such a machine, because they're mathematically impossible. Magnets don't have power. They do not release energy. You can't run anything on them, because they are not power sources. Think about magnets like springs. The spring can push on something, but only if you compress the spring first. So the energy you get out of the spring is just the energy you put in when you compressed it, minus some losses. It's exactly the same with magnets. There is no arrangement of permanent magnets that provides a sustained net force, just like there's no way to arrange springs so that they'll continually accelerate a wheel. The reason electric motors work is because they move the field itself. There is absolutely no way to make permanent magnets do what electric motors do, because their fields are static. And once the device has reached its minimum energy state, it will simply stop. And the magnets will make you stop faster, because they'll induce eddy currents as the moving magnetic fields pass through conductors, sapping energy from the system and dissipating it as heat. Seriously. Trust the physicists on this one. The whole "make stuff spin forever with magnet power" is bullshit.
Im at work at devising a machine to capture the energies.... heat... mechanical.... etc.... released from a lying politician's mouth. One great part about this approach is the degree of freedom afforded the user in selecting which politician they want to hook up to the device. Once I complete the prototype I intend to test. Though I still have some engineering challenges to overcome..... in principle I am very optimistic that I will have created a perpetual motion machine that greatly exceeds in energy output compared to any energy input required. Will keep everyone posted on my progress.
Todos dan por sentado, la validez de que la energía no se puede obtener y eso Puede Ser Refutado y cuando eso Suceda la Ley de la Termodinámica será obsoleta!!!! Mientras Tanto, Gocen de Su Ley y dejen de probar!!! Yo prefiero pensar QUE SE PUEDE!!!!
Anything involving politics is terribly inefficient but will run forever as long as gullible taxpayers, of which there are plenty, keep feeding them, .
The universe would need to be a perpetual motion machine to do that. Stop dark energy from spreading everything out and then maybe we can talk about it.
@Adam George The universe is only estimated to be 13.8 billion years old, so we're still "near the very beginning of infinity". Keep in mind that you can only exist to observe the universe during the time period during which it has low enough entropy to support your existence (ie, relatively close to the beginning). But as for the rest of what you said, no, motion doesn't "stop". Energy will always exist in the universe, it will simply be too spread out to interact with other energy after a while. It will still exhibit quantum behavior and experience changes in its trajectory that keep it from being "perpetual motion", but some form of motion will always exist.
I have TH-cam history disabled. I tend to only get enhanced garbage recommendations for a little while after watching videos like this. I say enhanced, since it's still pretty garbage normally.
Livin' to Learn If you look in the upper right corner of the clip you will see that there is thanks and credit given. It would have been impossible not to realize the source video was itself also debunking perpetual motion.
I thought I had created something that could generate energy. But years later after my prototype got smashed at the school fair, I looked into it and realized that the excess coil of wire was using heat from the sun where I had set up to create more energy like a solar panel could. i was so excited for a long time after busting a few bulbs thorugh excess energy generation. Now I realized I was creating a loop of electricity through infrared. But you coudln't convinced me of that when I was just 13 years old.
@@ghaldurinanubios4290 But where would the energy come from? When I posted this comment, I was thinking it would essentially act as a kinetic energy battery. That kinetic energy would then be possible to turn into heat and electricity. That electricity could then be used for a bunch of stuff

@ViperDaniel Where in quantum mechanics says this is forbidden? There is NO SUCH THING as time in quantum mechanics. Quantum mechanics believe time is an emergent property. An any kind of MOTION machine requires time for motion, as such quantum mechanics doesn't say any such thing that this is forbidden.
@William Burns Who say I will. There are crazier people who will do it and they may be successful so however much anger you have now, will be mute. :) Today's idiot is tomorrow's genius.
Nope, you're just not looking close enough for their energy source. In my experience, small children are energy vampires. They suck the energy from nearby adults and then expend it by running and screaming. This both explains the observed energy output from the children and the exhaustion of the nearby caregiver adults.
That’s kind of the point that I get confused about with all the people who just want to debunk perpetual motion. What I find most interesting is the passive energy generation and the challenge of making an efficient system. Even if you could have a machine that could charge your phone at night, that would be awesome.

TL;DR I've never noticed it before, but PBS has been one of the biggest educational institutions of my entire life. It's "done it's job" _so_ well, for so long. I *really* don't want to come off as patronizing. This channel really does make me proud of PBS. I'm so astounded by how well they've adapted to TH-cam. This content in particular almost feels like it's evolved with me, in a personal way. When I watched PBS as a kid, it was stuff that was just complex enough to actually be educational. Then cable came around, and I assume they had more freedom to challenge their audience, so while I was a young man, I remember learning new stuff. Even though I spent most of my life at a school, I learned. Now as an adult, who spent endless hours as a teenager watching physics specials and nature documentaries, I'm still being taught. I've learned from what they taught me, and now they're teaching me something else. Like they're keeping track of what I know. That's what I mean by it feels personal. They're SO SO SO good at their job, bless them.

@Jacob Turnbaugh Thats simply not true. Did you watch the video? Perhaps things are perpetual in the theoretical entire expansion and contraction of universes. If the expansion reverses and all the energy expended collects back into a black hole, and the cycle perfectly starts over again, then you are correct. But we don't know that, therefore you are just wrong. Planets slow down over time, suns burn out, hawking radiation, heat radiation, vibration slowing inertia, etc etc. Please explain yourself.
@@ravenlord4 yes but... the universe itself isn't bound to the laws of physics. Only the matter and evergy is on a local level. The real question here is: in an expanding universe, is energy conserved? If so, how?

@@ericalbers4867 ~"On a cosmological scale" is the only place where the laws of thermodynamics ultimately apply. On a human scale it only matters as an equation of efficiency.

That reminds of a science fiction short story I read some time ago, where the guy accidentally invented a ball with a super-unity bounce ratio. That is, if you dropped it from 100 cm high, it would bounce back up 102 cm. Cute story, spoilers, it proved to have disastrous consequences, particularly when it was bouncing miles and miles into the sky, each bounce was like a meteor impact, and they couldn't figure out how to catch the damn thing.
The interesting this is, trained scientists have trouble thinking outside the box they are put in. If they start off from the position that something is impossible, then they will not try to do it. The person to find this, if it IS possible, will end up being the person you are ridiculing. Rather than mocking them, treat them like children and pat them on the head and say, "Keep trying". If they succeed we all win, right?
Would a ball of mass surrounded by a sphere of negative mass collapse to a black hole? Or would the mass squish out of the way, like playdough in a hydraulic press? If it does form a black hole, what does it mean for a black hole to contain negative mass? A white hole? God I love physics thought experiments.

Even the Carnot cycle doesn't necessarily have an efficiency of unity. If I recall my thermo correctly, a Carnot engine's efficiency is dependent on the temperature of the heat source and heat sink. Efficiency = 1 - Tsink/Tsource At Tsink = 0K or Tsource = infinityK, the efficiency will be 1. For any other cases, efficiency will not be 1. A Carnot engine could even have an efficiency of 0 if Tsink = Tsource.

So... if there is energy everywhere in the universe - the zero point energy, does that mean the universe is curved everywhere due to relativity? And if so, does that mean if the zero point energy is enough to create a virtual particle, wouldn't that effectively mean that having a virtual particle is no different than having no particle and the "bending of spacetime" by a single particle is the same as for the case with just ZPE?
@@seemlyme That won't work. From what I can understand from your wall of text, we have a tank. There's a small hole in it connected to a balloon, and a valve (1) that can be closed between the tank and the balloon. There's a small nozzle in the balloon that also has a valve (2) that can be closed. Your plan is to open valve 1 to push water from the tank into the balloon, close 1, and open 2, and let the water out, which you think will be above the level of water of the tank (this doesn't happen). Initially, there's a lot of water in the tank and no water in the balloon. When 1 is opened, some water flows into B until the pressure of the water in the tank (at the point of the hole) and balloon is equal, then the flow stops, even without closing 1. This means 1 is actually useless, and does nothing, and is only the start of problems with your system. Ignoring this for a while, let's close 1 and open 2. Now the balloon discharges its water upwards , and you think it will be above the level of water of the tank, but remember that the water in the balloon, when filled, *is at the same pressure as the water in the tank at the hole* , since it's just free flow into the balloon. So initially, this water will rise just as high as the level of water in the tank, and then it won't even rise as high as the pressure of the balloon drops. Which means, even the balloon and the nozzle is useless. You mentioned something about the balloon storing elastic potential energy, but elastic potential energy stores just as much energy as that's put in. In the end, it all comes to conservation of energy: A ball bounces no higher than the place it was dropped from.
@@seemlyme There are only a few "free energy" devices that actually work. two of the most practical are wind turbines, and solar panels. The energy they produce costs nothing, they're readily available, and guaranteed to work.(granted, they're intermittent)Pair either or both of these with a good size battery, and you have something that can actually work, because they satisfy all the laws of thermodynamics. Perpetual motion is (almost) possible, imagine a flywheel spinning in deep space. No friction to slow it down. In the scale of the lifetime of a human, it's practically perpetual motion. The thing that is theoretically impossible, is "over-unity". No machine can be a zero point source of energy.
It doesn't count because energy is lost to the dog's surroundings. You can tell by how the dog releases humor to bystanders without receiving any energy to compensate. By the time the necessary love and affection is given to continue the cycle, the dog has already broken it.
Idont know i had a small terrier dog that when he chased his tail he became a pretty high output energy machine if there was a way to harness it it wasn't perpetual but in bursts could load capacitors.
Best part of thinking that you know how to make a perpetual motion machine is that at some point you realize is not posible and you get to really understand the Second Law of Thermodinamics.
I invented a perpetual motion machine when I was a kid. It goes as follows. Get a hose and form it into a circular loop so that the two ends join. Half fill this loop with a magnetic liquid and mount the loop so that it is upright (like a big wheel). Also inside the hose place a small hollow ball so that it floats on the liquid on the left side. Now place a large permanent magnet near the loop on it's left so that the liquid is pulled towards it and now only fills the left side of the loop. This will take the ball to the top of the loop which will fall down inside the hose on the right side (with no liquid). When it reaches the bottom inertia will make it enter the liquid at the bottom and once inside it will float up to the top through the liquid. Then when at the top it will continue to move to the right (the empty side) and will then fall down again, continuing forever. I know it doesn't work, but can you see why?
Sure. The ball would NEVER penetrate the liquid hard enough to start rising through it on the left side, it would simply stop at the bottom. Gravity would make certain of that.
@@davelowets Almost right. You could have enough enertia to penetrate the liquid, but once inside the liquid the flotation action is pushing the ball to the right, not up (as the magnet is on the left and displacement forces are right pushing), so the ball will be pushed straight out again, and gravity will help it stop as well. So even though it could enter the material it would end up sitting at the bottom of the tube just outside the liquid.
@@petejohnston5880 If the ball is non-magnetic, the magnet and the "magnetic liquid" would have zero effect on what the ball does. It would simply be gravity overcoming the buoyancy of the ball at that point, and preventing it from completing the cycle.
@@davelowets The ball is non magnetic but if it's in the liquid and the liquid is being pulled to the left by the magnet, then the ball is being pushed to the right (to allow the liquid to fill it's space). In a normal liquid the ball would rise to the surface but in this scenario the ball is being pushed to the right (when inside the liquid) and has no upwards forces.So with enough momentum it can enter the liquid it's just that it will be pushed straight out again and will never rise.
I used think about this kind of thing when I was maybe 13 or 14 and taking my first science classes. The last "free energy" design I came up with was a capillary pump. I googled about them just now and it's interesting to see some of the designs others have had for them. No surprise that there have been no prospects for power generation.
You can perpetually generate dark energy, but the trick is figuring out how to do anything useful with that. Besides powering a machine that makes the universe expand of course.
@T What do you mean??? (Maybe I shouldn't ask...). What you should remember is how many women are sitting there thinking the same thing... (And I'll shut up)
The Carnocycle actually gives the barest inkling of an idea; room temperature air is brought into the system from outside a room and compressed to create a high temperature zone to power an engine, then once the heated cylinder has "cooled down" to "room temperature", the compressed gas is released into the outside world where it is functionally "very cold", but will disperse eventually due to the sheer volume of "room temperature air" as well as being warmed by solar rays or possibly geothermal radiation. This process would essentially be a "very inefficient solar engine".
It's strange to me that so many use magnets as if magnets are free energy. Magnets are stored energy. When their charge runs out, they have to be remagnetized.
@@sirroger1 I think he's saying charge runs out so it's more easily understood, and your just picking apart his terminology. But if you seriously believe magnets will sustain themselves forever could you please explain how.
@@diecies8261 once magnetised, a ferro-magnetic compound produces a magnetic field indefinitely, unless heated or de-magnetised in another way. It is a property of the alloy, not a "charge".

Dumb question about Brownian ratchet. What if we just dont put gazes in the cog chamber ? I get it that as soon as the latch raises, its just as likely to go in one sens or another because of brownian motion of the gas. So what if we just remove the gas so it doenst push the cog ?
I think that the real reason why the magnet-and-ramp device wouldn't work is different: a magnet is not a source of energy. If the device were able to make a full cycle with a magnet, it would also be able to make a full cycle without one. Adding a magnet does nothing but changing the graph of potential energy. In a carefully designed device the point of maximum potential energy might be at the start of the ramp, just like without a magnet the point of maximum potential energy is at the top. Putting a ball there would allow it to make a full cycle - but only if there were no friction or other dissipative forces. And this is the real dealbreaker with perpetual motion (together with the law of conservation of energy), not technical details like "the magnet would attract the ball to itself over the gap".
some types of magnets are created by introducing certain metals to 10k volts of electricity...this means that energy was in fact put into the magnet... so perhaps there is some way to get a portion of that energy back

In the 60s I visited the Franklin Institute in Philly! They had a swinging pendulum about 3 stories high which kept swinging because of it's alignment with the earth's equator, and the earths rotation kept it swinging! Of course, any hookup with work would eventually slow it to a stop!
All Foucault pendulums run down eventually because of friction, unless they are powered somehow. They precess because of the Earth's rotation, but they cannot extract energy from it. Most are powered by an electromagnet near the top of the cable.

There's a joke in here where it's cold enough you can win but you can't get hard, so you still can't win.

I'm amazed at how they do not fire up imaginations with the challenge to build things that take much less to perform better
Totally agree. Was thinking the same as i was watching.
You can approach an efficiency of unity by getting closer and closer. Going beyond unity to actually get anything out of it isn't natural, sorry, won't ever happen.

Ah, yes, zero point energy. The guy I worked for 20 years ago was an analog engineer and he also was a patent examiner on the side. I remember long conversations on the phone where he would have to carefully explain to various inventors why their energy extraction devices wouldn't work. They tried to avoid saying the word 'perpetual', but basically that is what their patent applications usually amounted to. Reverse-entropic devices.... for example, trying to extract usable energy from johnson noise, and stuff like that.
There were inventions that passed his desk that did produce energy... just not very much, and most of the inventors didn't understand physics well enough to know where the energy was actually coming from... but thought they had something wonderful when what they really had was a really inefficient solar panel or thermal gradient device.

I almost feel these quacks should be celebrated a bit instead of ridiculed. It takes a lot of effort, imagination and drive to create these things. However their creations unfortunately just add to the anti-science wave of moon landings, flat earths, global warming, antivax, etc.
Every once in a while I go down the TH-cam "free energy" rabbit hole. On rare occasions I can get someone to understand there is no energy in magnets to extract. Mostly, they just freak out and call me names. I only wish "big oil" would pay me to point out the obvious in comment sections.
Yeah but you probably didn't try attaching flywheels to the electromagnets, that's what did it. The laws of thermodynamics will stop being true if I add enough physically confusing pieces to my grand design.
There is a third category which is neither thermal or PV, it goes back to crystal sets and you can get a measurable amount of power from a truckload of antennae and tank circuits with a cats whisker type diode. Basically you can get a few microwatts out of each one.

Perpetual gravity can be harnessed . An under water wheel using 12 airbags with 12 weights outside of them. Can be made to turn using gravity alone. Only enough air to fill 6 of the bags. Weights will move towards gravity's pull = from the top towards the axial. = from the bottom away from the axial. Taking air with them through the wheel from the top to the bottom bag.(accordion style). All the full air bags are on the same side. Gravity will spin the wheel... till patrs ware out.

@@seemlyme
I'm not entirely certain how you hope to assemble this. Or why you think this would work indefinitely. It is possible to make the float of a fill valve work in reverse, so to speak, that it closes up a valve the lower the fill line gets. But then once you get past that it becomes dubious.
Firstly, this is the wrong type of valve for such a process as, the second the moment the inverted fill valve whose valve is shut off by the float as the water level lowers as opposed to rises, the bladder will begin to fill again. It would be better to simply let the pressure between the gravity-fed water tank and the pressure within the bladder equalize, and then seal it off with a valve that isn't dependent on the level of the water, or seal off the bladder at some semi-arbitrary point prior to the bladder bursting with an independent valve.
But then we get the issue of attempting to spray the water back into the tank. As the bladder begins to drain, the pressure on the water will shrink and any free-jetted water will have a weaker and weaker stream until it can no longer be fed back into the tank.
"The manual actions should be automated and repeated then perpetual motion"
As the machine you've proposed doesn't have any way to automate them, you will need to automate them from an outside source which is energy loss. Additionally, this machine is what this video described as a "type 3 perpetual motion device" where it can theoretically feed itself indefinitely, but does no work outside of that. The water being sprayed through the air or the water being fed through to the bladder would need to interact with an outside system in order for it to do work.
The failings of your proposal are:
1) Improper valve usage
2) dependence on consistent pressure in a variable pressure system
3) It is a perpetual motion machine that does no work besides to feed itself.
4) It cannot even feed itself.

Smart as he was, Groucho left school at the age of 12. His early 20th century audiences were also unlikely to know what perpetual motion machines were; what is special about the idea. It can be hard to appreciate how ignorant people of the past were of simple mechanics; certainly they did not know laws of thermodynamics. Whoever made that joke was certainly more modern.

Most of the things we learn, is more because we fail, rather than success.
I consider incredibly slow loss in energy to be close enough to perpetual motion for being a cool toy
like the sun is near enough infinite energy to stop the winjing and tap that keg
Like when someone makes an m machine that takes the power of a magnet and just releases it really slowly over time since magnetism power last so long I would consider these
Yup. It wouldnt make a difference if it lasts a million years or infinity to humans.
The ebb and flow of tides is the easiest macro scale oscillating energy system. Why is everyone trying to chase what the moon and earth already provides?
@@misaelolvera2996 Nobody has made such a machine, because they're mathematically impossible. Magnets don't have power. They do not release energy. You can't run anything on them, because they are not power sources.
Think about magnets like springs. The spring can push on something, but only if you compress the spring first. So the energy you get out of the spring is just the energy you put in when you compressed it, minus some losses. It's exactly the same with magnets. There is no arrangement of permanent magnets that provides a sustained net force, just like there's no way to arrange springs so that they'll continually accelerate a wheel.
The reason electric motors work is because they move the field itself. There is absolutely no way to make permanent magnets do what electric motors do, because their fields are static. And once the device has reached its minimum energy state, it will simply stop. And the magnets will make you stop faster, because they'll induce eddy currents as the moving magnetic fields pass through conductors, sapping energy from the system and dissipating it as heat.
Seriously. Trust the physicists on this one. The whole "make stuff spin forever with magnet power" is bullshit.
Im at work at devising a machine to capture the energies.... heat... mechanical.... etc.... released from a lying politician's mouth. One great part about this approach is the degree of freedom afforded the user in selecting which politician they want to hook up to the device. Once I complete the prototype I intend to test. Though I still have some engineering challenges to overcome..... in principle I am very optimistic that I will have created a perpetual motion machine that greatly exceeds in energy output compared to any energy input required. Will keep everyone posted on my progress.

Would you say that perpetual motion machines will be perpetually proposed?
The universe would need to be a perpetual motion machine to do that. Stop dark energy from spreading everything out and then maybe we can talk about it.
@Adam George The universe is only estimated to be 13.8 billion years old, so we're still "near the very beginning of infinity". Keep in mind that you can only exist to observe the universe during the time period during which it has low enough entropy to support your existence (ie, relatively close to the beginning).
But as for the rest of what you said, no, motion doesn't "stop". Energy will always exist in the universe, it will simply be too spread out to interact with other energy after a while. It will still exhibit quantum behavior and experience changes in its trajectory that keep it from being "perpetual motion", but some form of motion will always exist.
As the heat death of the universe approaches, i imagine sentient creatures will still try to formulate something like that.
@Adam George Infinity doesn't exist.

Nope, you're just not looking close enough for their energy source. In my experience, small children are energy vampires. They suck the energy from nearby adults and then expend it by running and screaming. This both explains the observed energy output from the children and the exhaustion of the nearby caregiver adults.
The best proof that entropy always increases is that if the opposite were true, perpetual motion machines would gradually invent and build themselves.

That’s kind of the point that I get confused about with all the people who just want to debunk perpetual motion.

The interesting this is, trained scientists have trouble thinking outside the box they are put in. If they start off from the position that something is impossible, then they will not try to do it.

Please add annotations to his TH-cam channel describing that he is not a joke as you suggested. Then you can clear his good name. Thanks
ElectroBoom! Great guy! Smart and funny as hell. 😁
The video that os showed on this video is in fact Medi showing how a perpetual motion machine can't generate his own electricity!! Very funny guy!!
KVL is for the bird though
Even the Carnot cycle doesn't necessarily have an efficiency of unity. If I recall my thermo correctly, a Carnot engine's efficiency is dependent on the temperature of the heat source and heat sink.
Efficiency = 1 - Tsink/Tsource
At Tsink = 0K or Tsource = infinityK, the efficiency will be 1. For any other cases, efficiency will not be 1. A Carnot engine could even have an efficiency of 0 if Tsink = Tsource.
I lasted an entire 5 minutes of this video and learned something from the miniscule bit that I could grasp before finally accepting that this discussion is miles above my head

@Vadim VeeVoit that's why I said there's a problem, cause there wasn't any funny tone, looks like you weren't joking, unfortunately🙄
@Vadim VeeVoit look if we're bringing IQ into this then I want you to know, you are currently arguing with a 14 year old about classified technology. I'm not saying that classified technology doesn't exist, but don't you think that if someone had groundbreaking evidence that a perpetual motion machine exists, then it would be everywhere? And don't hit me with "oh the government controls the internet" Because if they did then you wouldn't be posting about how the government has tech like this. Go back to your Facebook group you, tinfoil hat wearing, 5g causes cancer, plandemic, motel cumstain for a brain, conspiracy theorist.

I love how this video bassically just takes a huge perpetual crap all over everyone attempting to make a perpetual motion machine. Haha!
I'm glad people are still trying. Will it ever amount to a perpetual motion machine? Well no. But maybe we'll get some cool new data from their attempts!
he defined perpetual motion as a system that runs with no external energy input ... then he demonstrates a machine that receives no external energy input and chooses a PORTION of that to say it is not possible ... like taking a carberutor from and engine and saying it cannot create enough power to move a 1 ton vehicle ... well duh of course not the carb is only a PART of the system .... he made the worst mistake in science possible he removed logic from his rebuttal and got it wrong ...
leave the carb in the system turn the key and poof the engine works and moves the 1 ton vehicle ... using a portion of a system to refute its claims is BAD SCIENCE .... and that gets taught in the first week of all science classes ... guess he skipped that week
When I was at school, a friend and I. We invented Perpetuum mobiles and discussed them with the physics teacher. They worked in that perspective that the teacher always said to us that our Perpetuum mobiles will not work because of this and this physical law. A law we did not learn until this point.

So... if there is energy everywhere in the universe - the zero point energy, does that mean the universe is curved everywhere due to relativity?
And if so, does that mean if the zero point energy is enough to create a virtual particle, wouldn't that effectively mean that having a virtual particle is no different than having no particle and the "bending of spacetime" by a single particle is the same as for the case with just ZPE?

@@seemlyme That won't work.
From what I can understand from your wall of text, we have a tank. There's a small hole in it connected to a balloon, and a valve (1) that can be closed between the tank and the balloon. There's a small nozzle in the balloon that also has a valve (2) that can be closed. Your plan is to open valve 1 to push water from the tank into the balloon, close 1, and open 2, and let the water out, which you think will be above the level of water of the tank (this doesn't happen).
Initially, there's a lot of water in the tank and no water in the balloon. When 1 is opened, some water flows into B until the pressure of the water in the tank (at the point of the hole) and balloon is equal, then the flow stops, even without closing 1. This means 1 is actually useless, and does nothing, and is only the start of problems with your system. Ignoring this for a while, let's close 1 and open 2. Now the balloon discharges its water upwards , and you think it will be above the level of water of the tank, but remember that the water in the balloon, when filled, *is at the same pressure as the water in the tank at the hole* , since it's just free flow into the balloon. So initially, this water will rise just as high as the level of water in the tank, and then it won't even rise as high as the pressure of the balloon drops. Which means, even the balloon and the nozzle is useless. You mentioned something about the balloon storing elastic potential energy, but elastic potential energy stores just as much energy as that's put in. In the end, it all comes to conservation of energy: A ball bounces no higher than the place it was dropped from.
@@seemlyme There are only a few "free energy" devices that actually work. two of the most practical are wind turbines, and solar panels. The energy they produce costs nothing, they're readily available, and guaranteed to work.(granted, they're intermittent)Pair either or both of these with a good size battery, and you have something that can actually work, because they satisfy all the laws of thermodynamics. Perpetual motion is (almost) possible, imagine a flywheel spinning in deep space. No friction to slow it down. In the scale of the lifetime of a human, it's practically perpetual motion. The thing that is theoretically impossible, is "over-unity". No machine can be a zero point source of energy.
But....
Does dog chasing its own tail count as perpetual?
(this is clearly a joke)
Not clear enough to the dog.
It doesn't count because energy is lost to the dog's surroundings. You can tell by how the dog releases humor to bystanders without receiving any energy to compensate. By the time the necessary love and affection is given to continue the cycle, the dog has already broken it.
@Brazilian Goddess lmao
Idont know i had a small terrier dog that when he chased his tail he became a pretty high output energy machine if there was a way to harness it it wasn't perpetual but in bursts could load capacitors.
@Brazilian Goddess yes
Best part of thinking that you know how to make a perpetual motion machine is that at some point you realize is not posible and you get to really understand the Second Law of Thermodinamics.
I invented a perpetual motion machine when I was a kid. It goes as follows. Get a hose and form it into a circular loop so that the two ends join. Half fill this loop with a magnetic liquid and mount the loop so that it is upright (like a big wheel). Also inside the hose place a small hollow ball so that it floats on the liquid on the left side. Now place a large permanent magnet near the loop on it's left so that the liquid is pulled towards it and now only fills the left side of the loop. This will take the ball to the top of the loop which will fall down inside the hose on the right side (with no liquid). When it reaches the bottom inertia will make it enter the liquid at the bottom and once inside it will float up to the top through the liquid. Then when at the top it will continue to move to the right (the empty side) and will then fall down again, continuing forever. I know it doesn't work, but can you see why?
Sure. The ball would NEVER penetrate the liquid hard enough to start rising through it on the left side, it would simply stop at the bottom. Gravity would make certain of that.
@@davelowets Almost right. You could have enough enertia to penetrate the liquid, but once inside the liquid the flotation action is pushing the ball to the right, not up (as the magnet is on the left and displacement forces are right pushing), so the ball will be pushed straight out again, and gravity will help it stop as well. So even though it could enter the material it would end up sitting at the bottom of the tube just outside the liquid.
@@petejohnston5880 If the ball is non-magnetic, the magnet and the "magnetic liquid" would have zero effect on what the ball does. It would simply be gravity overcoming the buoyancy of the ball at that point, and preventing it from completing the cycle.
@@davelowets The ball is non magnetic but if it's in the liquid and the liquid is being pulled to the left by the magnet, then the ball is being pushed to the right (to allow the liquid to fill it's space). In a normal liquid the ball would rise to the surface but in this scenario the ball is being pushed to the right (when inside the liquid) and has no upwards forces.So with enough momentum it can enter the liquid it's just that it will be pushed straight out again and will never rise.
One word: friction
End of video
And sometimes unintuitive frictions! (Back EMF)
I used think about this kind of thing when I was maybe 13 or 14 and taking my first science classes. The last "free energy" design I came up with was a capillary pump. I googled about them just now and it's interesting to see some of the designs others have had for them. No surprise that there have been no prospects for power generation.
All this video did was convince me that I want to make a cool looking toy thing that goes for a long time
I'm using expansion of the universe, as energy source for my Perpetual Motion Machine.
You can perpetually generate dark energy, but the trick is figuring out how to do anything useful with that. Besides powering a machine that makes the universe expand of course.

Aaah! Thank you!
The Carnocycle actually gives the barest inkling of an idea; room temperature air is brought into the system from outside a room and compressed to create a high temperature zone to power an engine, then once the heated cylinder has "cooled down" to "room temperature", the compressed gas is released into the outside world where it is functionally "very cold", but will disperse eventually due to the sheer volume of "room temperature air" as well as being warmed by solar rays or possibly geothermal radiation. This process would essentially be a "very inefficient solar engine".
Perpetual motion does, in fact, exist: in the perpetual notion that perpetual motion exists.
Why did the perpetual machine finally call off work?

It's strange to me that so many use magnets as if magnets are free energy.
Magnets are stored energy. When their charge runs out, they have to be remagnetized.
Magnets do not have a charge and never “run out”.....
@@sirroger1 I think he's saying charge runs out so it's more easily understood, and your just picking apart his terminology. But if you seriously believe magnets will sustain themselves forever could you please explain how.
@@diecies8261 once magnetised, a ferro-magnetic compound produces a magnetic field indefinitely, unless heated or de-magnetised in another way. It is a property of the alloy, not a "charge". Your fridge magnets, for example, dont' fall off after a month or two, do they? I'm not a 3rd grade physics teacher, go have a google if you're genuinely interested.

How to get infinite energy, piston activates observer that activates piston again
I think that the real reason why the magnet-and-ramp device wouldn't work is different: a magnet is not a source of energy. If the device were able to make a full cycle with a magnet, it would also be able to make a full cycle without one. Adding a magnet does nothing but changing the graph of potential energy.
In a carefully designed device the point of maximum potential energy might be at the start of the ramp, just like without a magnet the point of maximum potential energy is at the top. Putting a ball there would allow it to make a full cycle - but only if there were no friction or other dissipative forces. And this is the real dealbreaker with perpetual motion (together with the law of conservation of energy), not technical details like "the magnet would attract the ball to itself over the gap".
some types of magnets are created by introducing certain metals to 10k volts of electricity...this means that energy was in fact put into the magnet... so perhaps there is some way to get a portion of that energy back
If free energy machines were prolific before the first law was discovered, we should undiscover it.

I quickly realized that everything has an end. Even our universe. That was a battle for me as a very young kid, until I was an adult.

Whatever you explained machinical overbalanced machines are moving the weights in curved path, so will not work, though you have more torque on inside, but the wheel on other side weight is more.
Can you think and tell when the over balanced weights are moving linearly means between fulcrum and peripheral?.
We don’t need perpetual motion machines. We already have the universe which will continue to create energy long after we are gone. We just need better ways to harvest it.
The universe does not create or destroy energy, it's already all there. Just, mostly, very dispersed.

@@hellogoodbye6893 Well, that's the mystery all of science is trying to figure out, isn't it? How the universe was "created". No one has the answer to that.
@@KimStennabbCaesar While on a grand scale your statement is partially correct, but not really accurate. since stars convert the potential energy in light elements into kinetic energy via fusion. I believe the SuperFluffy poster was referring to creation kinetic energy.
If you subscribe to the Big Bang Theory (BBT) than your statement is also false since everything in the universe originated from a singularity. Energy & mass was created from nothing & thus would violate the laws of thermal dynamics (LTD). If you don't believe in the BBT, it would also violate thermal dynamics since the universe is full of mass & kinetic energy. The fact that the Universe has mass and expanding disproves, LTD at cosmic time scale.
Guy Tech something from nothing hhahaa that's funny, I'd imagine it's like this we can't seem to get past something in the atmosphere, the Bible refers to it as the firmament, Hillary Clinton made a statement that "thanks to your tax dollars we put a million cracks in the glass dome" thay were firing nukes up and trying to bust a hole in it but that's neither here nor there. If the powers that shouldn't be were for the good we would be able to harness all the free energy that we needed plus much more and as far as the BBT big bang theory something from nothing is to confuse the people on how & who is responsible for the creation of the land we walk on & humanity as we know it.

In the 60s I visited the Franklin Institute in Philly! They had a swinging pendulum about 3 stories high which kept swinging because of it's alignment with the earth's equator, and the earths rotation kept it swinging! Of course, any hookup with work would eventually slow it to a stop!
All Foucault pendulums run down eventually because of friction, unless they are powered somehow. They precess because of the Earth's rotation, but they cannot extract energy from it. Most are powered by an electromagnet near the top of the cable.
