What else can I help you with?
From time to time people claim to have invented a machine that will run forever without energy input and develop more energy than it uses (perpetual motion). What is wrong with this claim?
Perpetual motion violates the laws of thermodynamics, specifically the first and second laws. The first law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted. The second law states that in any energy transfer or conversion, some energy is lost as heat, making it impossible to have a machine run forever without energy input and generate more energy than it uses.
What is perpetual motion?
A perpetual motion machine is something that will keep spinning or moving (typically involves rotation, but not always) forever without the need to keep adding energy. These are typically viewed as something that will move forever that we can connect a generator to in order to obtain free infinate energy.
