Perpetual motion machines - devices that can do work indefinitely without any external energy source - have captured many inventors’ imaginations because they could totally transform our relationship with energy. There’s just one problem: they don’t work. Why not? Netta Schramm describes the pitfalls of perpetual motion machines.

Don't we sort of have perpetual motion though? Superfluidity has no friction so if you stir it it'll keep spinning forever. Don't know is that breaks any of the physics laws or whatever, but from what I read it'll never stop, and they can definitely be created.
yes

I hate you, Physics
TechnoWimp ask physics we can find a way a new way make one, one that can change the world as we know maybe on a different planet
seeing as we still know so little , the most appropriate answer would be : "not like that"
"The only perpetual thing is our never-ending search"
So the perpetual motion machine... was inside us all along?
Not inside us. More like absolutely everywhere, since energy itself is never ending motion.
Exactly

Or maybe we'll disappear from the face of the universe in a few years and we'll have to go on searching even if we'll not be able to do that🤔

another (and simpler) way to look at the overbalanced wheel is that while those weights that stick out should be turning the wheel, there's also fewer of them than of the weights on the other side that don't stick out
If the weight on the other side will be larger how can they even rotate.

@@VidhanShrivastava-iu2xx I didn't quiet get what you said but I think my answer to your qsn is yes.
A few other things:
1) If a closed system could produce more energy than it consumes, then it would just infinitely accelerate until it.. explodes or something?
2) There is no way to actually prove that a machine would never stop, the same as there is no way to check beforehand if a computer program would loop forever or stop at some point (Tom Scott made a very good video about that)
Why don't we just get rid of these laws of thermodynamics, seems like a simple solution.

great video, as someone who loves math and botany at the same time, I would like to add that. It can be very, very difficult for a machine to generate and expend its own energy, but a plant placed in a jar or lantern can create a kind of recirculation by producing its own oxygen and then expending its own carbon dioxide. Of course, another point that needs to be said here is that this plant can achieve this by taking energy from the sun...
Lmao
The sun is pretty much infinite so it has a point
@@GustavoGomes-nn5npIt will last for a long time, but not forever.
in our lifetime we dont gotta worry about the sun. The people who have to worry about it can worry about it, not us.
In the end, nothing can function without getting energy from the outside. Need to get more energy than they produce. If the plant is isolated from the sun, it'll eventually die.
I've been asking myself this forever. It never ends.
Your Neverending thoughts on it are a perpetual motion machine
Law #1: You can't get out more energy than you put in
Law #2: *No*
but what about stepup transformer
but that only changes the voltage
Im probably just wasting my time commenting
I don’t know why I laughed so hard at this
Law #2: You will get as many energy than you put in but only a fraction will be usable
@@coolelectronics1759 The power is still the same in a transformer. You just increased the voltage while lowering its current.
what happens when you split an atom with one tiny process to cause an explosion large enough to wipe out of town. Technically an atom bomb is less heat and energy before it separates the atom to create exponentially more energy with the help of
nuclear fusion

Back to the Laws of Thermodynamics, beloved of my time in the early to mid 1970s, studying Applied Chemistry at Uni. It's so long ago, at the start of the article here, I could only remember the First Law, and the narrative reminded me of the Second aw. If there are any others (I'm honestly not sure), I'll have to look them up.
There was enthalpy, the entropy, all rolled up into free energy. In the end I gave up and got a Ph D in organic chemistry. Now it is quontum theory.
Love how to the point these videos are
Maybe the real perpetual motion machines were the friends we made along the way
No, because those require a constant investment of energy.

well said, i enjoyed every moment of this video!
I feel like this is one of those things humanity really shouldn't give up on.
But it really isn't possible, and even if it was somehow done, there would be no real use. Like he said in the video, the most it would ever be able to do is just run itself forever, with no energy left for anything else

This explains why at your old schools playground those spinner things never worked. You could get in them and be pushed, but the thought of leaning yourself inward or outward to go faster doesn’t work because immediately it will just rotate back and forth after maybe one forceful spin.

your pfp gives me chill.
Edit: why did you change it :/
English:
Even if it were completely self-sustaining, you cannot add or remove energy without changing the system, which would lead to a failure.
If you take away energy, it can no longer sustain itself.
If you add energy, the whole thing is pointless because you don't mean "perpetuum mobile" as such, but as a generator. E=0, i.e. E=(input=output) and thermodynamics don't play a role because energy is ALWAYS lost, be it through friction or something else, especially if you want to convert electricity into heat or kinetic energy.
Of course, I can, for example, equip 2 disks with magnets and let them rotate forever. But you then change the initial situation by building a translation for the desired type of energy, which is absolutely necessary somewhere if you want to use things.
Sooner or later the disks stop when the angular momentum ends or is stopped by the magnetic field and you need (relatively quite a lot) of energy to make them rotate.
If something like this had already been invented to work, the Internet and newspapers would be full of it. Would be (almost) better than finally seeing a fusion power plant in operation.
German:
Selbst wenn es sich vollständig selbst erhielte kann man auch dann keine Energie zu- oder abführen ohne das System zu verändern was zu einem Ausfall führen würde.
Entnimmt man Energie kann es sich nicht mehr selbst halten.
Fügt man Energie zu, ist das ganze Ding sinnlos weil man ja nicht "Perpetuum mobiles" als solches meint, sondern als Generator. E=0 ,also E=(Eingang=Ausgabe) und die Thermodynamik spielen da nicht mit denn es geht IMMER Energie verloren, sei es durch Reibung oder sonst was, erst recht wenn man Strom in Wärme- oder Bewegungsenergie umwandeln will.
Klar kann ich beispielsweise 2 Scheiben mit Magneten bestücken und es sich ewig drehen lassen. Nur, verändert man dann die Ausgangslage indem man eine Übersetzung für die gewünschte Energieart baut, was ja irgendwo zwingend erforderlich ist wenn man dingen benutzen will.
Über kurz oder lang bleiben die Scheiben stehen wenn der Drehimpuls endet oder vom Magnetfeld beendet wird und man braucht wieder (Verhältnissmäßig ziemlich viel) Energie die es sich drehen ließe.
Wäre sowas bereits funktionsfähig erfunden, wären Internet und Zeitungen voll davon. Wäre ja (fast) besser als endlich mal ein Fusionskraftwerk in Betrieb zu sehen.
A 1 kg mass moving 24.26 m/sec will rise for 2.473 seconds (this needs 24.26 N * sec: 9.81 N for 2.473 sec) and it will travel up 30 meters. After it has been raised 30 m the 1 kg mass can be placed in a 199 kg Atwood’s and dropped for 30 m. This takes 34.97 sec for (9.81 N/kg) 343.10 Ns. There is much more momentum in the Atwood’s than is needed for the rise.
Newton's second law of motion: states that in a closed system, not affected by external forces, the total linear momentum does not change.
This line can be the line that is the circumference of a circle. The interactions in this line are the same as interactions in a straight line. If a 40 kg rim gives all of its linear momentum to 1 kg: the momentum is still conserved even though all the mass is moving in a circle. One kg moving 40 m/sec has 40 times as much energy as 40 kg moving 1 m/sec; but it has the same linear momentum.
This means that the Laws of Physics ‘require’ that energy can be made from preexisting momentum. And this energy can be easily recycled. The friction is minimal; because this 40 times increase is done in just a few seconds
Simple because physics says we cant have nice things.
have you ever seen a gyroscope???
Arthur Leite ... again, who caused the motion to get the gyroscope started in the first place?
Vsauce did kkkk

This makes a lot of sense actually, the first law says you can't use physics and certain natural reactions because there's always an imbalance, and the second law says that energy will try to escape no matter what materials you use or how much you spend or study there will always be troubleshooting. Even if a perpetual motion machine was created that could break those laws it's going to be affected by so many other factors such as gravity and acceleration and aerodynamics, you name it.

I used to think like the author of this video until I learned about Nikolai Tesla. In my opinion, Tesla is the most important inventor of all times and he was a keen observer.
I was in shocked with the Tesla's statement saying that we do not need to burn fuel to generate electricity. It is the reason why Tesla went through several assassination attempts. The 1st attempt happened in 1894 when his lab was bombed.
People need to learn the true nature of the famous Tesla coil and its principle of operation based on what Tesla called "Radiant Electricity". That's right, because his transformer does not operate on magnetic field, it can avoid the energy limiting issues due to the Lenz's law.
Why don't you try to create the coil then? See what happens...

If I’m not mistaken in theory yes perpetual motion is possible if no energy escapes since energy can’t be created nor destroyed, but in practice it’s not possible because with our current technology there will always be a source for energy transfer, even with out friction, some energy is transferred to sound, and heat just to mention two. There is simply too many ways energy can escape, and even if you decrease this to a fractional amount, eventually all the energy will escape. Anyways I’m never paid much attention in physics so correct me if I’m wrong.
Even if you managed to stop all forms of energy (it’s impossible) it would still be useless.

Great topic
I believe it was Da Vinci that created a kind of windmill that had metal balls in the propeller blades .. the inside of blades had a hollowed out track so as the blades reached the top they'd fall to the center.. and as it spun the ball would force the propeller to turn as the fell towards the out edge of the propeller.. therefore gravity always forcing the blades to turn.. I always wondered why engineers did not incorporate this engineering into wind turbines

Interesting to think that the redstone's "energy" is just virtual - virtually infinite - though still limited by the physical energy which you can give to your computer.

I once saw this in a Dilbert Comic:
Dilbert: I’m obsessed with creating a perpetual motion device. Most scientists say it can’t be done, but I have one thing they don’t have.
Dogbert: A lot of spare time?
Dilbert: Exactly.
i love dilbert
Wow, I actually learned something!
The Power Multiplier Device: Open sourced, gravity driven, free energy generator:
Functions as follows:
There are two large sprockets, one on the roof of the building, the other at ground level. A chain connects both so that when one side of the chain is pulled down it turns both sprockets.
On the axle of the lower sprocket there is another sprocket that connects to a transmission that is connected to a generator. When the same side of the chain is pulled down it turns the lower sprocket and the second sprocket which turns the generator to produce energy. This requires a downward pull of 2,000 pounds to produce sufficient energy.
On the inside of the chain that is pulled down there is a small drive sprocket that is kept in place by two heavy plates, one of each side of the small sprocket, having the axle of the small sprocket going through each weight. On the outside of the chain there are two idler wheels above and below where the small sprocket is on the other side to keep the chain on the small sprocket. Two more idler wheels at the top of each weight to keep it attached to the chain. Each axle of the idler sprocket has threads for a machine nut so they stay in place as connectors.
The axle of the small sprocket goes through the weights on both sides and extends out. A large bicycle-type wheel is placed on this axle and has a diameter of 7 feet. At the top of the weight on the side of this bicycle-type wheel is a small motor that has a chain around its drive sprocket that goes around the circumference of the bicycle-type wheel.
Small motor draws energy from the battery to turn a large bicycle-type wheel clockwise, turning the drive sprocket clockwise also because both share the same axle. This has the drive sprocket climb the chain, taking the whole assembly with its 2,000 pounds of weights. Three things now happen:
1) The motor takes the assembly to the top of the chain with its 400 pound pull, taking 1 hour to do so, requiring the energy amount from the battery. Energy Expended going up. EE/up= 1 hour pull of 400 pounds from the battery.
2) As the assembly is climbing the chain, it's heavy weight (2,000 lbs.) is still hanging/pulling on the chain, pulling the chain down which turns the transmission/generator, producing a full charge of energy going back into the battery. Energy generated going up, EG/Up = 1 hour of a 2,000 pound pull by the heavy mechanism.
3) When the assembly reaches the top the small motor shuts off and the assembly's weight slowly begins to descend, pulling the chain down with it. Since it climbed the chain faster than it pulled the chain down, its descent will take longer than 1 hour for its energy generated down charge into the battery. EG/Down = 1+ hour of a 2,000 pound pull charging into the battery.
EE/Up 1 hour of a 400 pound pull < EG/UP (1 hour of a 2,000 pound pull charge into the battery) + EG/Down (1+ hours of the 2,000 pound pull charge into the battery) = FE, EE/up < (EG/UP + EG/Down) = FE.
With a heavier weight:
1) The motor takes the assembly to the top of the chain, taking 3 minutes to do so, requiring the energy amount from the battery that is represented by the expression 1N. Energy expended going up. EE/up=1N.
2) As the assembly is climbing the chain, it's heavy weight is still hanging/pulling on the chain, pulling the chain down which turns the transmission/generator, producing a full charge of energy going back into the battery. Energy generated going up, EG/up=.4N.
3) When the assembly reaches the top, the small motor shuts off and the assembly's weight slowly begins to descend, pulling the chain down with it. This descent takes 10 times longer than the ascent due to the heavy weight of the assembly, and the low gearing of the transmission, it 'creeps' down.
In 3 minutes going up, .4N was charged back into the battery. In 6 minutes going down .8N will be charged into the battery, replacing all of the energy the small motor expended. The remaining 24 minutes of the descent will charge 3.2N into the battery, Energy generated going down, EG/down=3.2N energy not needed for the mechanism's operation, free energy.
EE/up < (EG/up + EG/down) = FE, or, 1N < (.4N + 4N) = 3.4N FE. Connecting another PMD with five times the weight, to the first one, having the lower sprocket be the small motor for the second one's larger bicycle-type wheel, will produce more energy.

Nice
Shouldn't it be eeeeeeennnnnnnntttrrroooopy?
@@Nordkiinach The universe is finite, its expansion is infinite. Very different.
@Déjà Siku I don't understand your thought process. In my opinion you have said a lot without really saying anything at all.
“Oh look a self watering bowl of infinite energy!”
Gravity : *Thats cute*
What happens if you take gravity out of the equation of some of the machines?
@@brucemiller1696 if you did, it would theoretically be wrong as gravity always acts on the machines.
@@bobamsd5559 not in space.
@@brucemiller1696 yeah I was talking about earth
@@brucemiller1696 gravity occurs with everything, you exert gravity on something but it's just miniscule compared to earth.
Although earth movement and other object in the cosmos seems moving in a perpetual motion (even though we know its not due to the law of entropy) but in our lifespan as a human in our perspective it seems to be moving in a perpetual way. Perhaps lets stop to look on a solution for perpetual motion but we can focus on how to prolong a movement of an object like how earth, stars, and planets does.
we know how to do it but the aprtpart you don't understand is that we gain nothing from it, in order to spin the earth it had to be given enough energy to spin for all this time, we can make something spin for millions of years by making an object with a LOT of mass and spinning it, it will be spinning for a very long time but we will make less energy from it than we wasted to put it spinning on the first place
What about the super conductor ring with current going it in circles with no signs of slowing down?
Yoo, ted just tricked me into learning for 5 minutes
Lol 😂
your ancestors: shame
Yeah what were they thinking?
i couldnt imagine not wanting to learn things like this, its so interesting.
It's the narrator's voice, I swear. I could listen to him talk about things I'm not even remotely interested in for hours.
trying to invent one of this must be the same feeling of trying a gta5 glitch for 2 hours and then figure out it was already patched
*_gets glitchers ptsd_*
damn... patches...
The worst feeling FrFr
It's the equivalent of trying to install a bunch of mods for Skyrim.
I,ve been thinking that if we could change the weight of some material, heavy at the bottom light at the top, like as it passes through some polarity, not sure
Maybe, these laws don't apply as much in space and we haven't experimented enough. Some objects in space may float indefinitely as they have been for eons. Carrying kinetic and potential energy unlike objects that are subject to Earths personal entropy, resistance and restrictions.
