hello, here is interesting and easy concept for perpetual motion machine using magnets. Problem: why this is not accepted as perpetual motion machine? I do not see anything wrong with this concept, but it clearly produces more rotational energy that easily overcomes the friction.
Evolution of perpetual motion http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqG-TL0WnjE I do not think that this has commercial relevance as free energy generator, because solar, wind and nuclear are far cheaper free energy resources that will last billions of years. But as perpetual motion, this should be a proof of concept. However I do not think that it is anymore complex idea than refrigerator magnet that is doing endless work against gravity or electron that can orbit nucleus without losing it's energy. Earth revolves around the sun and that is also perpetual motion. In sum: in quantum universe there are no room for classical physics. It is also interesting to ponder that around 2030 solar electricity will be far cheaper than electricity generated using cold fusion. That is because PV-cells do not have moving parts and as they are semiconductors, their cost effectiveness is evolving exponentially. Price of electricity generated using PV-cells has halved around every six years for the past 33 years. In March 2012 industrial scale solar electricity price was $151 per MWh and if this trend continues, like it is hugely probable, solar electricity is by 2021 cheaper than coal power and by 2030 it will be cheaper than cold fusion electricity, and after that, it will be too cheap to meter! ―Jouni
