As usual I probably forgot a file or two or who knows what else, so if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask Figura I do make plenty of mistakes.

Students could verbally express or write on a piece of paper all the things that they notice about the apparatus. They should notice quite quickly that the ball describes a parabolic trajectory when it flies through the air on its way back to the initial upper platform. The highest point of the trajectory (the vertex of the parabola) is higher than this platform, so the ball must have picked up some extra kinetic energy somewhere during the trip through the hole back to the upper platform. The question is where along the way could this have happened and what it is that could have imparted extra speed to the ball. Students should think of how they could potentially figure out where on the trajectory the ball is being sped up.

The filing of a patent application is a clerical task, and the USPTO will not refuse filings for perpetual motion machines; the application will be filed and then most probably rejected by the patent examiner, after he has done a formal examination.

[23] The symmetry which is equivalent to conservation of energy is the time invariance of physical laws. Therefore, if the laws of physics do not change with time, then the conservation of energy follows. For energy conservation to be violated to allow perpetual motion would require that the foundations of physics would change.[24]

Link Drop a marble into the top of this tabletop sculpture, and it rolls down a ramp and back into itself endlessly.

1 There have historically been many purported perpetual motion machines.2,3 A close analysis of the machine invariably finds either that there is some assumption that violates the laws of thermodynamics or that there is some input from an external energy source, which means that the system is not isolated.4,5 In this article, we will consider an amusing example of such a machine, in which a ball starts on a platform, falls through a hole, and slides down a track formed from two side-by-side stainless steel rods.6 I explain how the machine Gozque be used in class to illustrate physical principles, outline the possible mechanisms, and end with an explanation of the correct mechanism.
