Scientists and not only have been trying for many years to create a perpetual motion machine. Not all attempts were successful, but some are definitely noteworthy. Many are interested technology of inexhaustible energy and want to try to make a perpetual motion machine with their own hands. It is always interesting to know what a perpetual motion machine is, whether it is possible to assemble it and how to do it.

What it is
Any device that works at the expense of any energy will stop working if it is disconnected from the source of this very energy. A perpetual motion machine solves this problem: once you turn it on, you do not have to worry that it will run out of battery or run out of gasoline, and it will turn off. The idea of creating such a device excited the minds of people for a long time, and there were a lot of attempts to create a perpetual motion machine.
Such a device should have an efficiency of more than one hundred percent. That is, the amount of energy produced must be greater than the amount received so that the engine can keep yourself in working order and at the same time provide a certain amount of energy for third-party tasks.
Since such a system should work forever (or at least for a very long time), then to it special requirements are imposed:
- Permanent job. This is logical, because if the engine stops, then it is not so eternal.
- As durable as possible parts. If our engine is to run forever, then its individual parts must be as durable as possible.
Scientific hypotheses
The scientific community does not deny the creation of such a device. True, in the eyes of scientists, it is not just a collection of moving parts or cones with mercury inside. It should be a more complex device, operating on the energy of ether or vacuum. Ether is a kind of all-pervading medium that vibrates and generates electromagnetic waves. The existence of the ether, by the way, has not been proven.
Gravity engine
It's no secret that gravitational forces are at work in our universe. Now they are at rest, as they are balanced with each other. But if the balance is upset all these forces will set in motion. A similar principle can theoretically be used in a gravitational perpetual motion machine. True, no one has yet succeeded in doing this.
Magnetic gravity engine
Everything is a little simpler here than in the previous version. To create such a device, permanent magnets and loads of certain parameters are needed. It works like this: in the center of the spinning wheel there is a main magnet, and around it (at the edges of the wheel) there are auxiliary magnets and weights. The magnets interact with each other, and the weights are in motion and move either closer to the center of rotation or further away. Thus, the center of mass shifts and the wheel rotates.
The easiest option
To create it, you need simple materials:
- Plastic bottle.
- Thin tubes.
- Pieces of wood (boards).
The bottle needs to be cut horizontally in two. Insert a wooden partition into the lower part, in which to make a hole in advance and come up with a plug for it. After that, a thin tube is taken and installed in such a way that it passed from bottom to top through the partition. Any gaps in the component parts must be sealed by preventing air from entering the bottom of the bottle.
Through a hole in the tree, pour a volatile liquid (gasoline, freon) into the lower part. In this case, the level of the liquid should not reach not to the tree, but to the cut of the tube. Then the plug is closed, and a little of the same liquid is poured from above. Now you should close this structure with the top of the bottle and put it in a warm place. After a while, liquid will begin to drip from the top of the tube.
The thing is that the liquid seeps through the tree. The air inside is "locked" and begins to heat the liquid around it. It, in turn, evaporates and goes up, cools and settles on the tree, which completes the circle. Thus, the liquid simply circulates within the system.
Water variant of a perpetual motion machine
This is a fairly simple structure that can be built even at home. You will need a couple of flasks, valves for them, one large container of water and several tubes. Guided by the picture, you can assemble such a device - it will pump water.
This theme very interesting and exciting. Scientists all over the world have puzzled over this mythical device. There were many charlatans who passed off their ingenious machines as ever-running engines. To date, no one has been able to create such a device. Many scientists deny the possibility of the existence of such a machine, since it violates the fundamental laws of physics.
