Hello physic-ians,
A pal and i are having an argument... he says he has invented what would
seem to be a perpetual self-turning wheel, and short of actually building a
model to see if it works or not, i thought i'd ask for opinions on it here
if you care to look or comment.
he says it would work.. i say it would not... what do you say ?
You can find an anime gif of how it would work here :

some explination:
You see the basic wheel, with spokes and each of the Dots would be
weights, and Gravity pulling at the bottom. The theory is a magnet would
shift the two weights on the horizontal spoke to the right and gravity
would pull this displaced weight thus turning the wheel.... perpetually
even ?
any opinions appreciated on if this would work or not. Thanxxss.
Go to http://www.lhup.edu/~dsimanek/museum/annex.htm and scroll down
to The Simplest Magnetic Motor and you will find essentially the
same "motor".
At the bottom is a link to why it won't work.
