Has anyone created a perpetual motion machine yet?

No, perpetual motion is prohibited by the laws of thermodynamics.There are machines that might at first seem to be perpetual motion machines but only because their source of energy may not be readily apparent.add. But in economics, inflation serves the purpose of a perpetual motion machine, in which more currency is created continuously. And which serves to illustrate the reality of economics.


How can an induction motor act as perpetual motion machine?

Perpetual motion machines are an impossibility. Energy conversion is never 100% efficient. Even if it were, friction is never zero.

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


Is it possible to develop a perpetual motion machine?

Theoretically it is impossible. Many have tried and many continue to attempt to develop a perpetual motion machine. Only if there is no friction and no energy is lost to the surroundings, would perpetual motion be possible... No. Such machines are not possible, although until the end of mankind people will perpetually try to imagine or create one.
