What is a Perpetual Motion Device and How Can I Make One?

AI Thread Summary
A user claims to be developing a perpetual motion device based on an overbalanced wheel and plans to release detailed drawings for others to replicate it. The prototype is currently only on paper, with a release strategy involving ten parts, where the final part is essential for understanding the entire mechanism. However, another participant points out that perpetual motion is impossible due to factors like friction and air resistance, suggesting that while the device may not be truly perpetual, it could be highly efficient. The discussion highlights skepticism about the feasibility of such a device and questions the complexity of the underlying principles. Overall, the concept of creating a perpetual motion device remains contentious and largely viewed as impractical.

I make a perpetual motion device. It is a kind of overbalanced wheel. :wink: It is very simple mechanism. I am trying to make its prototype (or toy model).
It is on paper now. :confused: I am trying this month only. After that I will cut my drawing in ten (10) parts.I ll release all drawings one by one on net. All nine (9) parts of drawing will be sense less without its last part. :surprise: With the help of this drawing everyone can make this machine. :wink:

It is not a joke.It is just for information.

In our world of friction, air resistance, etc. perpetual motion is impossible. Hate to break it to you...
 
While perpetual motion is impossible, the idea that the cunsumption of energy for whatever reason can be compensated for while the device is in motion, can lead to a device that while not perpetual, is efficient to the point that the device seems perpetual.

Now, an overbalanced wheel would not provide enough momentum to compensate for its own weight, so I don't see how a device using such a wheel could ever be perpetual.

Perhaps some further explinations to elaborate on the principle behind this device?

Probobly not ;)

Let me guess, you can't tell us what it is for fear we'll steal it. But it relies on a very complicated math that any simple 4th grader could understand?
 
I have recently been really interested in the derivation of Hamiltons Principle. On my research I found that with the term ##m \cdot \frac{d}{dt} (\frac{dr}{dt} \cdot \delta r) = 0## (1) one may derivate ##\delta \int (T - V) dt = 0## (2). The derivation itself I understood quiet good, but what I don't understand is where the equation (1) came from, because in my research it was just given and not derived from anywhere. Does anybody know where (1) comes from or why from it the...
