Will this new energy invention work???

Question

Ok, well I've been thinking up of a new invention.

It has to deal with a magnet and a sideways ferris wheel.

I've pieced this together with some help of a friend, and realized that you could build a circle of magnets that try to attract each other. If you take the outer ring of a ferris wheel apart and attach each spoke with a strong magnet, a magnet on a spoke would try to attract the magnet on the spoke in front of it. Since the magnets are not touching each other, this circle of motion should probably go on forever and could power a motor.

Answer 1

trust me..if its such a great idea..it would be invented..there are smarter people in this world then u....give up

Answer 2

there is no such thing as infite motion machines, basic laws of thermodynamics http://www.youtube.com/skyrish99

Answer 3

what if you had a combination of attraction ,AND repulsion?

How about having a ferris wheel with cups of material that spilled out as the wheel turned , using a combination of magnetic power and sentrific power and gravitational power?

How about experimenting with the power of vacuum versus gravity (vacuum overcomes the gravitaional force). You could try to combine various forces, and there ain't no tellin what you could come up with. Even if it wasn't ecaxtly and energy amchine , maybe it could have other uses, or used to boost power generators. I don't really know a lot about physics. I'm just throwing ideas out there. Who knows...???

Answer 4

The spoke in front and the spoke behind would each be attracting the middle spoke equally and the forces would cancel each other out.  It would put strain on the spokes, but it wouldn't spin.

Answer 5

I wonder if a photovoltaic electricity form of electromagnet would be able to create enough magnetism to cause a perpetual motion unit  ... as long as the sun was shining on it. I suspect a physics expert can destroy this dream but that same physics expert should dream up some better ideas. Sometimes great ideas are born from dreams that seem impossible ... till someone tries them and makes them work.
