Is Perpetual Motion by Gravity Possible?

In summary, the two-dollar free energy device supposedly created by Fleishman uses the coriolis effect to create a high-speed vortex that flushes water up a column. However, this theory is flawed because it does not take into account conventional physics.

I recently looked into a general theory of Perpetual Motion by using the gravity of some nearby large celestial object like the sun or perhaps for it being so close the moon. I attempted to solve that puzzeling mystey myself but got myself confused with equations and thoughts about Force, Gravity, Velocity, Inertia, and Momentum. Then I lost track of where I was. Do any of you think it is possible by relation to my theory to have Pepetual Motion?

I don't know what your theory is, but perpetual motion is impossible. The closest to it is the planets and moons in orbit. However even this won't last forever.

No, if a theory enables perpetual motion then that is seen as a serious flaw. Without an explanation I can only make a guess at where you went wrong, perhaps you failed to take into account GPE?

i think you can get almost perpetual movement quite easy by means of using the coriolis force.

if you have a column of closed water and by means of a tube flush it way up it will go as high as the level of the column of water

but if you form a fast vortex (the faster and the more to the north the more coriolis effect) which makes also the surface of the water form an angle whose center is the vortex, the flush of water could be made to reenter the column of water since the extra coriolis force and the angle of the water creating a perpetual movement i don't know but if the conditions are adequate i suppose so since there's an extra coriolis force produce by the spin of earth

this would explain shaubergers claim of perpetual movement in their vortex devices the lift force would be explained by the different centrifugal force of the many revolutions within the vortex and the few in the outside one goes vertical the other goes downwards.

it came to my mind the article about free energy 2 dollar device, the fire of alchemists of which i read something in the mutus liber and fleishman electrolisis of heavy water with palladium and platinum i think (when he claimed to have got cold fusion):

i don't know maybe the electrolisis of my device could reach cold fusion

maybe fleishman got a vortext during an instant (with the correct solar alinagtion)

maybe that's why alchemists picked up morning dew in special seasons (heavy water)

but then again if this tecnology is discovered will be used first to go to the starts or will be used to destroy ourselfs

would they let gold be nothing but a heavy metal and burning petrol useless besides making hunger disappear by burning water in the coast to let the winds turn africas desserts into forests by letting the cold fusion out or would they prefer to keep it secret as a weapon

anyhow what i wish is that we can conquest the star the sooner the better

I'd say you need to know more conventional physics before going into alternative physics. I know for a fact that that would have to be a cylinder many miles wide to even notice the coriolis effect and it would be powered by the Earth's limited rotational energy.
I don't mean to be a downer, I actively research these free energy claims, since it doesn't cost me much and the pay off would be huge :smile:.
I have heard of this two dolar free energy device, how does it work, how do you make it?
I do think there was something to the schaburger(misspell?) theory, but I don't think he really understood it. I also think that at high rotational velocities, with water doped with free charges (say salt water), one could get one heck of a high voltage out of his devices and I think this avenue should be researched.
I will now note for the critics that I don't know if any device will be made that at least seems for all intents and purposes to create energy, but I do know that we already have a whole bunch of free energy devices: wind, water, solar, and tidal power, and it don't cost us a penny! (Of course ignoring maintainence and original construction.)

i don't know this device shoud be first have an anticavitant propeller ( V shaped) to get the fluid let's say 500 miles per hour (in linear velocity) The faster the speed the higher the coriolis correction (in planes with the sextant) , isuppose that's why shauberger used air because you can get higher speeds

anyhow you are totally right i should know more physiscs, but my teacher is a bastard,

or maybe you could give the 2 dollar device an extra speed boost just by spinning it like when you spin a bottle to empty it first (by centrifugal forces), increasing the speed of the fluid increases the coriolis force

ps:
since i don't have to type my password to post i can't choose to post with my other name raaaid anybody knows how to solve this?

no perpetual motion possible even with gravity all have a start and a end.you can create motion but will stop eventualy.on Earth if you use gravity and weight to make motion you need the same force to pull up so it even think to a stop motion sorry...

A completely isolated system with internal motion will keep it's motion and can express this over time as different ways of feedbacking energy. (conservation of energy). An example is our universe.

Finding a way to tap the kinetic energy of planetary movement would not be perpetual motion in the strictest sence. However, in practical terms it would be close enough, because it would be motion that is self-sustaining (or at least, sustained) for as long as the planets conitinue to move, and by the time they stop, we'll have much bigger concerns than where to plug in our appliances.

Regardless of whether that machine you speak of could work, that isn't perpetual motion. Perpetual motion doesn't just mean its capable of moving forever, it means its capable of moving forever while POWERING ITSELF.
A completely isolated system...
...which doesn't exist in reality...

The universe currently exists and evidence suggests it has not always existed. Thus it must have started at some point in time. And the current theory for how it started (Big Bang) also says that before a certain point just after it, the laws of phyics break down. So no, it doesn't break conservation of energy - conservation of energy doesn't apply.

Of course I know those theories, but there are also other points of view. It all depends from your starting point and the mechanism that can provide the start. You can also ask - related to Big Bang - ' what caused the 'BB-start'? IMO A question never asked.
My point of view comes from the observation ... we can calculate that this universe contains 'action'. We can and do measure that. So movement is one of the parameters or actors. We can say even that's a repeatable fact. Then the question comes: What is (are) the other parameter(s)? Is it a point of singularity or is it a reshaped previous ... something?.

It seems your are very well informed. What makes you say that?
And POWERING ITSELF ... yes I was talking about that. An isolated feedback system can do that. Maths should prove your that. 1=1. Either it is 1=2-1, or 1= 1.5 + 0.5 -1, or ... KE can become EM, TD, Rad or even Love. In a closed system energy stays energy.

You have mixed two separate and unrelated quotes of mine together, so I don't know what you are talking about. Could you clarify please?

do not say perpetual motion with gravity you can say create motion with gravity this is possible .perpetual motion mean a system that soon as it been created will start to operate on is own will generate is energy to keep motion for EVER...this system is imposible.our universe is not that system because it started very hot and is getting colder and will stop exsist in time .this universe was created by a other system that we do not anderstan and that systeme probabely create other universe.

Thermodynamics ... locally created by kinetics (friction) of the gravitational spacetime ( or 'Feld' - the gravitational 'field' if you prefer).
 

1. What is perpetual motion by gravity?

Perpetual motion by gravity is the idea that an object can continuously move without the need for any external energy source, solely powered by the force of gravity.

2. Is perpetual motion by gravity possible?

No, perpetual motion by gravity is not possible. The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred. Therefore, an object cannot continuously move without an external energy source.

3. Why is perpetual motion by gravity often considered impossible?

Perpetual motion by gravity is considered impossible because it goes against the laws of physics, specifically the law of conservation of energy. Additionally, friction and other forces would eventually slow down the object, making perpetual motion unsustainable.

4. Are there any examples of perpetual motion by gravity?

No, there are no known examples of perpetual motion by gravity that have been scientifically proven. Many claims of perpetual motion devices have been debunked, and any perceived motion is often due to hidden energy sources or incorrect measurements.

5. What are some potential applications of perpetual motion by gravity?

While perpetual motion by gravity is not possible, the concept has inspired advancements in renewable energy sources such as hydroelectric power and tidal power. These systems use the force of gravity to generate electricity without depleting non-renewable resources.
