Which product does not exist in market?

Perpetual Motion Machine.


What are those accessories or equipments involved in Perpetual Motion Machine?

Perpetual motion machines do not exist. If they did we would not be paying almost $3.00/gallon for gasoline, as a perpetual motion machine implies free energy. Newton's laws tell us that is not possible. For further explanation read up on Newton's laws of motion and thermodynamics


What is an anti gravity mirror?

An imaginary device, which like perpetual motion, does not exist.


Why is a windmill not a perpetual motion machine?

Perpetual motion machines do not exist. There is no machine that will keep on moving by itself without any added power. Windmills are driven by the wind. When the wind stops blowing, the windmill stops turning.


Why does an operational amplifier need a power supply?

It doesn't. You can make a differential amplifier with a single power supply.

This would be called a "perpetual motion machine", but they don't exist.

Is motion possible?

Not according to the second law of thermodynamics. It is possible to create near perpetual motion by cooling some liquids to near absolute zero where they lose viscosity and can be made to continue to circulate through some apparatus. It isn't technically perpetual motion though, because one still needs to spend energy to keep the liquids at such a low temperature. Near perpetual motion can also be observed by the Earth, which orbits the Sun, and has been doing so for billions of years and will continue to do so for billions more. It isn't quite perpetual either because, in addition to the several different processes from which the Earth loses energy internally, the interstellar medium creates a tiny amount of friction which is in turn converted into heat, and so the Earth's orbit would eventually decay if the Sun didn't engulf it first in a few billion years when it turns into a red giant. In the end though, there is no such thing as perpetual motion.


What conditions must exist for an object to be in uniform motion?

In order for an object to be in constant uniform motion ... that is, un-accelerated, with constant speed and direction of motion ... the vector sum of all forces acting on it must be zero.


What is it about our atmosphere that makes the water cycle possible?

Atmosphere helps in providing various conditions for water to exist in different states. Hence making water cycle possible.
