/sci/, why doesnt perpetual motion work?

>> No.3358935

because in order for it to do work, you have to put comparable energy into it

>> No.3358940

Mathematically proven that energy can't be created. See Noether's Theorem. Thread ends.

>> No.3358952

Perpetual motion does not work because it involves violating the laws of thermodynamics.

These laws can be summed up thusly:
You can't win, you can only break even.
You can only break even at absolute zero.
You can never reach absolute zero.
