Boyle's Self-Flowing Flask Filled With Polyethylene Glycol (Self-Pouring Liquid) = Perpetual Motion?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2017
- In this video I combine Robert Boyle's self flowing flask with Polyethylene Gycol, the self pouring or self siphoning liquid in order to attempt a perpetual motion flow system. I make the internet version of Boyle's flask to attempt this then I show the neat properties of the polyethylene glycol. Then talk about how perpetual motion is actually possible with superfluids.

Perpetual motion does not exist in this universe, probably. Apparently the universe is expanding and that can lead to what may seem to be perpetual motion after effects in certain situations. But what do we know, we are only humans with no idea what is really going on.
Yeah, you never know, all of the “laws” of the universe we think there are might not be even real
Technically perpetual motion is impossible because when the earth gets sucked back into a singularity there is NO way whatever machine we made will keep going
@CrinWolfig
Perpetual motion happens all the time. It is a basic fact of the universe that objects stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
If you launch a rocket into deep space it will go on forever until it hits something. Whats not possible is exteacting more energy than was put into getting the object to move.

It is, thermodynamics makes the motion of the flask be transferred to the whole system (the room et cetera) as heat and thus destroy the motion while doing that.

thermodynamics. you will never have perpetual motion
Graydon Treude Quantum mechanics denies thermodynamics
Nitroxium lol no they complete each other
Tom Wöhler No, the state of quantum denies the 2nd law of thermodynamics
Nitroxium tiny quantum systems can violate the second law with a certain probability, but on a larger scale the second law is true.
I would not say they deny, they complete each other. Like with quantum physics and relativity. We just don't know everything yet but continue to understand more and more.
Graydon Treude They also said the theory of relativity would never be CLOSE to being proven. Look where we are now.
He just needed to make tube thinner to make hydrogen bonding in water significant. Just like how plants have water columns as strong as steel wires of the same diameter in xylem tissues.
Idk why this guy tried to break the first law of thermodynamics with a fun physics toy lol
He tried to break it by moving too fast for it lmao
Eventually perpetual motion will be discovered. Remember when they told us nothing can escape a black hole even light? Well now they have pics of something escaping a black hole. To pretend we know everything about the universe at this point is ridiculous almost everyday something is discovered that baffles science.
@@BlackandWhitecustoms But light can escape a black hole, it just can't escape as soon as its inside the event horizon, also black holes are a completely different thing which we basically dont know anything about, prepetual motion is something people are trying to achieve for hundreds of years, laws of physics can't be messed with
@@smilloww2095 thats incorrect light has been detected coming from event horizon. Everything is possible. Before we know how its called magic but once we figure it out then it's called science. To think you know whats possible and not possible in future is hilarious because time and time again we get proved wrong in our assumptions
Who is to say that black holes don't contain the answer to perpetual motion?

And this is why free energy is not possible
Plug a power bar into itself you idiot
Free energy isn't possible because there's no profit in it. Research Tesla and J.P. Morgan.
rcredmon You amuse me.
rcredmon you dummie dumb head
What he suggested that you are all ignoring is that Tesla wanted power to be free, Edison didn't. Since Edison won that little feud he got his way. As well as that the main man funding Tesla (J.P. Morgan) realized 'oh he meant he wants to GIVE it for FREE' and cut funding. Literally his point was 'it costs money to get it so it will never be freely given out'. I don't see what's stupid about that basic logic.
You're doing it wrong, you have to place the orange portal at the lowest point, and the blue portal up at the top of the cup. That should solve your problem. While liquid helium has no viscosity, it's still affected by gravity, so going up a tube would still require either power or a syphon effect to work.
+Eugene S yes liquid helium is affected by gravity but it has a strange property called superflow where it always climbs up its container walls against gravity. It is usually attributed to "wetting" as opposed to 0 viscosity. But it is currently not understood how or why liquid helium climbs its containers against gravity. So in this case the liquid helium could climb the walls of the tube and drop back into the original cup. If you are unsure if that would work then you could always dip the tube back in the liquid once it is flowing and then it would flow for sure because gravity doesn't effect it in a closed pressure loop.
true liquid helium would work in theory however keeping helium liquid for a significant amount of time is really hard it would turn to gas and stop pretty fast unless you were putting energy in(well technically taking it out since it needs to be cold but you know what I mean), and if it stops it is not perpetual there are lots of ways to make it work temporarily although I don`t remember them all, for instance I think some beers actually do work for a couple seconds if they are really bubbly ones until the beer goes flat or something like that.
The Action Lab Liquid helium would flow through the container it's in. Because it has the property to flow through most of the.
No. You have to have the liquid nitrogen, along with helium which is frozen. (you can freeze helium now)
After that, you can enter the 4th dimension, and there you can see some quantum slimes.
If you touch one of them, you might get an effect, called "Huehue Effect", where you will actually enter the 5th dimension.
Now thats when you can start poruing liquid.
Eugene S I love you 😂
Thanks for sharing this informative video now I learned
This liquid be like “you’re out? I gotchu, homie”.
I wish you were my science teacher!!
I'm not sure I would want my science teacher asking if we can get perpetual motion with a straight face...
What on earth is a 'science teacher'? A teacher who teaches science?
What do the other teachers teach then?
math, language arts etc.
Brock and Boston i read math as meth
don't we all
Even if perpetual motion existed, the moment that you start to harness the energy, the motion would slow or stop accordingly.
Moe Zuiter So I’m assuming that’s what he’s referring to with the liquid helium? It will keep flowing but putting a turbine would simply draw away the energy from the system.
what if while it was falling, it hit a mill as it continued to fill. using gravity to turn the mill. gravity is an external force. so that would work right?
Jesus jiu-jitsu what do you mean ‘using gravity to turn the mill’? I don’t quite understand what you mean
Billy Bob Joe, The Anonymous Stoner he's trying to say about a concept called entropy, the energy in the system called universe is conserved, we can't add or remove energy, just transfer it from one form to another, perpetual motion disobeys it, so stops
Moe Zuiter pls let the kids imagine their future

Capillary action depends on the diameter of the tube though. The larger the diameter, the smaller the effect. Couldn't you just increase the diameter of the tube at the end? This would spread the liquid out over a larger area and surface tension wouldn't be enough to resist the weight of the liquid, causing it to flow downward. It probably wouldn't work but it'd still be fun to watch. Someone should really make a model and demonstrate this irl.
Feynstein 100 What do you need surface tension for? You have negative pressure from the liquid flowing downwards on the flask-opposite side of the tube, pulling the rest of it along.
So you're saying you need to decrease the capillary force enough so it can't resist gravity correct? Then the liquid will flow down in to the cup right? Wrong.
If, as you say, the capillary force is not sufficient to overcome gravity, then the liquid will not be able to be pulled up the tube in the first place.
By definition this machine cannot work. Either the capillary force is stronger meaning the liquid won't leave the tube, or gravity is stronger meaning the liquid won't go up the tube.
+SpaghettiToaster Umm what?
+Bob ForTewSevin I think you misunderstood. In the original Boyle's Flask experiment, the liquid is indeed pulled up by capillary forces up the curve but the same capillary forces hold the water together and prevent it from flowing out the other side. Which is why I suggested that perhaps enlarging the tube beyond that point would cause the stuck water to fall downward. This is very difficult to explain via text. Which is why someone should really do it irl.
Feynstein 100 if you increase the tube diameter, the flow velocity will decrease and vice versa. In both case, the total volume go out from the tube is constant with time. You will get the same result with his experiment.
Even with the good fluidic, the law of physics was not be violated. It's cool.
Love it bro
We need to see this with a superfluid. Zero friction, zero viscosity, and zero entropy gives you some fascinating results such as the fountain effect.

about 3 years old and still up to the standards, love your vids, keep up the good work
You will need a sealed "chamber" with 3 holes located at the lowest part of the loop, this chamber need to be filled from the top with also an exhaust on the top, the tird hole needs to be located at least about half of the height of the chamber(distance depends on the loop height) then the third hole and the exhaust hole must be merged in a Y connector below the water level, avoid looping the end where the water comes out and use an horizontal end so it can be as closer to the water level, this way you will require less effort to push the water up its level... what you are looking for with the chamber is to create a small pressure pump with the water filling the chamber the water will fill the space of the air inside giving a small push to the water that is trying to go up, you can go very picky on this to calculate what is needed for the pressure, chamber height, hole position, etc, off course the pressure on the chamber is limited by the amount of air that it can hold but here is when secondary pressure chambers, mechanical gauges and levers will come in to play to keep a continuous pressure.
The exhaust hole can be avoided if pressure is enough to push water up but if used the connection between the chamber and Y connector needs to be set as an arc in a "n" shape to avoid water on it, the reason of the exhaust is to make a push closer to the end of the water exit to create a sucking effect and to redirect pressure to the exitor it can also be used to combine multiple chambers.
Also the connection from water container and chamber filler will work better having a "P" trap in between.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything, enjoy 😉, love your channel BTW.

No such thing as perpetual motion!
Well superfluids and superconductors can exhibit perpetual motion. Just not the kind that you can extract work from.
Isn't perpetual motion something with 100+% eficiency?
Perpetual motion is a thing, for the sake of 2017 in theory atleast
In practical we've been as successful as building a perpetual machine as ash winning the Pokémon league (except for the orange league because he actually won the orange league - the only one)
See Einstein is back from the dead to say the fact
Chaitanya Singh Human development is perpetual motion.
There is different way to do this - if you create right pressure, hold the tube with a finger and release it in the liquid. It works so far only part of the tube is over the level of the liquid.
