The perpetual motion machine, a machine that runs indefinitely without an external energy source, has inspired many throughout history. However, the laws of thermodynamics exclude this possibility. Additional parts: Part I: • The ultimate trick, Part I: how to fail... II. part: • Perpetual motion illusion: How do they trick ... Bearings into motors: • Bearings as motors? Discover the ... 18650 battery cells can burn terribly: • Why 18650 Li-ion can catch fire in... The first law of thermodynamics, the principle of conservation of energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. A perpetual motion machine should constantly generate energy, but since energy cannot come from nothing, it fails here. And according to the second law of thermodynamics, there is a loss during every process. When converting energy, some heat is always generated, which is lost from the system. Therefore, a perpetual motion machine would sooner or later stop because it would continuously lose energy during operation. Although the idea of a perpetual motion machine is exciting, the laws of nature prevent it from becoming a reality. ****************************************************** ******* My website: https://ordasigabor.webnode.hu/youtube...
