if you mixed water with a feromagnetic metal and then ran it through permanent magnets (giving it a charge or allign it correctly) , then heated it up into stem and ran it through a coil of copper wire (in some way as to cause electrons to flow). waited for it to condensate (perhaps using the enviornment) and re-ran the cycle.

could you produce enough electricity to keep everything perpetually moving? remember, there are no moving parts. just electricity moving.

No. Energy is always conserved. Perpetual motion is forbidden both by the laws of nature and the rules of this forum.

The energy to turn the water to steam and get it back to the top of whatever it is running down (presumably a pipe?) would outweigh any energy you get out of the system.

If you could utilise all the energy given out by a system all you would be able to do is reset it to it's original set up, if you want to extract energy to do work the system looses energy

I don't know if you went for comedy with that, but it made me chuckle! :smile:

@avolaster: Do you realize electricity also encounters resistance?

Related to Perpetual motion through magnetized water?

1. How does magnetized water create perpetual motion?

Magnetized water is water that has been exposed to a strong magnetic field, causing the water molecules to align in a specific direction. When placed in a closed loop, the aligned water molecules create a continuous flow, thus creating perpetual motion.

2. Is perpetual motion through magnetized water possible?

No, perpetual motion through magnetized water is not possible. According to the laws of thermodynamics, energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another. Therefore, any system claiming to have perpetual motion is not scientifically feasible.

3. Can magnets alone create perpetual motion in water?

No, magnets alone cannot create perpetual motion in water. While magnets can influence the movement of water and create a flow, it is not sustainable without an external energy source. The magnets would eventually lose their strength, and the motion would stop.

4. Are there any potential benefits of using magnetized water for perpetual motion?

There are no proven benefits of using magnetized water for perpetual motion. In fact, attempting to create perpetual motion through magnetized water would require a significant amount of energy, making it an inefficient and impractical method.

5. Are there any other methods for achieving perpetual motion?

No, there are no scientifically proven methods for achieving perpetual motion. While there have been many attempts and claims throughout history, none have been successful. The laws of thermodynamics make it impossible to achieve perpetual motion in any system.
