Even someone who is no expert like me disbelieves this. The power generated by cranking minus some loss is the power he can use. 15 minutes to power his house for 6 hours.. sure if he only has a small led light on ????

 

If anyone had overcome the laws of physics as we know it it would have been big news.

It reminds me of that classic Homer Simpson line when he finds his daughter has created a perpetual motion machine " We obey the laws of thermodynamics in this house!"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perpetual_motion

 

Perpetual motion is motion of bodies that continues indefinitely. A perpetual motion machine is a hypothetical machine that can do work indefinitely without an energy source. This kind of machine is impossible, as it would violate the first or second law of thermodynamics.^[2][3][4][5]

These laws of thermodynamics apply regardless of the size of the system. For example, the motions and rotations of celestial bodies such as planets may appear perpetual, but are actually subject to many processes that slowly dissipate their kinetic energy, such as solar wind, interstellar medium resistance, gravitational radiation and thermal radiation, so they will not keep moving forever.^[6][7]

Thus, machines that extract energy from finite sources will not operate indefinitely, because they are driven by the energy stored in the source, which will eventually be exhausted. A common example is devices powered by ocean currents, whose energy is ultimately derived from the Sun, which itself will eventually burn out. Machines powered by more obscure sources have been proposed, but are subject to the same inescapable laws, and will eventually wind down.

 

 

The only way to achieve perpetual motion is to eliminate all losses. Impossible when matter interacts. The best environment supporting perpetual motion would be bodies in space. The earth rotates seemingly forever; it has been for billions of years but is slowing due to tidal friction between the earth and moon. The earth's rotational energy is being transferred to the moons orbital energy---the result: the day is becoming shorter as earth slows and the month is becoming longer as the moon moves into a higher orbit lengthening the orbital distance, hence the amount of time for the moon to orbit the earth. Billions of years in the future, the moon and earth will be in lock-step, when a day and a month will be equal, or about 47 current days. The moon will then be about 135% higher. Classic case of conservation of energy. Energy can neither be created or destroyed, only transformed.

I read about some scientists looking to trap neutrinos in a yet to be developed material. Neutrinos usually pass straight through matter including us. By capturing an impact, the potential energy could be utilised. Again, not a PM machine, but effectively free energy.

 

There are also organic springs that have been developed that are not perpetual motion machines by definition, but do use non man-made triggers to change their behaviour and therefore create 'work'. One example is a polymer coil that at say 25 degrees celcius is bound up tightly. At 30 degrees, the coil naturally unwinds creating "work", and as the temperature drops, the coil is bound up again. The only energy that is in the input equation is varying temperature from the environment. These polymers are already in existence.

Polymer coil would then be solar powered, again not perpetual, but it would last as long as the sun input the energy. Long enough for humanity.

Any device that does work can not be perpetual. Work occurs when a force acts through a distance which requires energy. If energy is not supplied the device will stop when the energy runs out. A spaceship, free of gravitational or frictional forces, continues traveling in outer-space without thrust, because no forces exists, therefore no work is done. The spacecraft continues along its trajectory at constant velocity.

Plenty of impacts on a daily basis in Thailand so is a good place to test such theories .. Though given the way some drive I'm not sure I'd want to capture it ..

This reminds me of the Thai kids, a few years ago, who invented a money sorting machine using a cardboard box. They were awarded some sort of inventors prize, then someone found the YouTube clip they had copied from.

I'm still waiting the release of the dengue vaccine they claimed to have perfected years ago. People are dying! 

Not to mention the Thai teenagers in Isaan, who, a few years ago, invented the world's cheapest condoms: 7-Eleven plastic bags! 

They invented papaya salad, what else do they need to / can they invent? That, surely, is the ultimate invention, is it not? ????????

I have an idea, the laptop without battery which is powered by the up-down movement of the owner's hand while watching porn. Where is the patent office please?

In the West we have to deal with a section of the media called the "yellow press" which entertain us with stories like B52 bomber found on the moon. But these are fabricated stories designed to amuse (for sure a few gullible people believe them).

Hey...I refute that...I was the one who landed the B52 on the moon...was on my way back from Pluto...decided to stop at the Lunar 7/11 for a slurpee.

Thailand - the Hub of Fools.  It's an ad-man's dream here.  The most ludicrous ideas are publicised and believed.  Money changed hands & the whole house of cards comes crashing down.  Thai schools create generations of gullible cannon fodder.

Whitening cream is the biggest lie that is marketed here. That's by playing on the darker-skinned locals who feel inferior, mainly because they are told so are by the marketing companies slick advertising.

 

Gullible yes, because critical thinking is actively discouraged in schools. The government know that if it took off, the population would soon realise what a crap deal they've had for centuries, leading to dissent.

If only...and then I woke up.

Multiple gears spinning a final gear/shaft at extreme high rpm is still intriguing to me. Ultra lightweight materials? Smaller? Better lubricants, I dunno still interesting, if not by this old guy then by someone else. But...I'm no engineer.....thank God for that you all say!

Yes, because the magnets effect have been nullified by global warming.
