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.

    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'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.

I found through experimentation that apricot jam works best especially when strapped to a Siamese cat.

      @@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.

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.

    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 UA-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.

      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 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?

    • @davelowets

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.

      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.

    When i was a kid, playing with legos, i noticed the big gear makes the small gear go fast, so i had the bright idea of putting a big gear on the small one to feed back to the first big gear. I thought wow! That will go really fast! I was disappoint.

      Even as a kid, I knew a perpetual motion machine was impossible. I thought about it for a few seconds once, realized it was impossible, and then was bummed about it for the rest of my childhood. 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.

      Dude. A simple Google search for what a “machine” is totally debunks your statements. Machines are not dictated by “man-made” structures. You’re body is a machine. This planet is a machine. This galaxy is a machine. This universe is a machine. Every expanding, ever condensing. Like a breath. The only thing hindering its performance is time. Sometimes the machine runs fast. Sometimes the machine runs slow. But it’s always running. And, it’s always running along side several other universes that also always running. The real question is what machine are all of these universes powering? Who knows…
      If energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred, then isn’t the mere existence of energy itself it’s own perpetual motion machine? The answer is yes and it powers everything that has or ever will have existed. The energy supplying devices we have IS us tapping into the perpetual energy that is our universe. The energy needed to create our existence had to come from somewhere. Meaning, it was transferred. Meaning, it was created through the perpetual energy that is energy itself. Meaning, Robby Horse is correct.
      We’ve already created our version of perpetual energy. It’s called putting a paddle wheel in a river. And when that river stops flowing, we find a different one. Modernity produces different technology but it’s all the same process. Transferring energy. Our planet is always producing energy. Of course, perpetuity can only be determined by the lifetime of the beings using that energy. Perpetual energy on our scale may imply a never ending source of power but it doesn’t imply that it has to be constant. There’s nothing saying that we can’t install a hypothetical “on/off” switch for that never ending source of energy. On our planet, our perpetual energy machine goes by “The Sun”. A source of energy that will literally be around for earths “forever”. All we have to do is figure out how to make an “on/off” switch for that never ending supply of energy.
      We’re looking at the perpetual motion machine thing all wrong. Earth already has one. The sun. It will literally power our planet until it swallows it in about 10 billion years. We just don’t know how to effectively turn it back on yet to efficiently power our modernity. Or, if we do, it certainly isn’t public information.

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.

      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.

    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.

If a sufficiently advanced civilization could create stable wormholes, it would be possible to extract free and fairly unlimited (by human standards) energy from temperature differentials between really distant locations in outer space. For example, it would be possible to create a heat engine which exchanges energy between the surface of the sun and the outer regions of the solar system or between the accretion disc of a black hole and the cold void between galaxies
