pepetual motion thread

Featured Replies

there aught to be a thread for this topic, so here it is.

this is my pepetual motion machine.

 

its in space, its a dounut shapped magnet. in the center is anohter magnet, same polarity. the dougnut magnet is place slightly offcenter on the horizotal plain, it is released. it should eventualy reach a equalibrim, but in zeroG and a vacum it could be some time, besides, tecnicaly in a true vacum that is near pepetual.

 

im sure you guys can do better though. but dose anyone know what the current prize for a pepetual motion device is? :)

there was a large cash prize of $2,000,000 last time i heard.

 

If it wasnt impossible i might have a dabble myself

Explain to me how this works.

I think it means that it spins continually around.

Igot a perpetual motion machine, spin a top in deep, deep space(out side the galactic neighboorhood) it will keep going, and going, and going...

 

beat that energizer bunny.

 

so that is perpetual, but i see no use for it.

 

And, all the "perpetual" motion machines, had some sort of magnets along with it, so there not perpetual. :cool:

actualy the collison of hytrogen particals would eventualy slow it down, yet again its near perpetual

Well, if there was one, there'd be a safe bet that it would never be claimed.
