its easy if you have magents and some electricity.
get an electric self propelled mower and a really long extension cable and watch it keep going and going and going ...
Seriously. You say he underestimates you, agree to an impossible task, give up (or just come STRAIGHT here) and then ask how to fake it? Yeah, he totally underestimates you.
month's salary is /owned.

I have your solution! Tell him that you'll let him off the hook and let the bet be for lunch. If he accepts, just buy him lunch. If he rejects this haggle him down for some other smaller prize cause you lost.

And he was valedictorian and is probably and engineering major. He will know a fake when he sees it.
And it is proven fact that you can't make them. So it is over for you. Maybe you shouldn't have agreed to the bet so soon.

I was thinking of making a swing, but hiding batteries in it somewhere.
will you also post when you've lost a month's salary? <presses -1> goddamn itFancy_Pollux wrote:

do you cheat in all aspects of life, or only academic ones?
Explain how that is cheating.PuckMercury wrote:

if you don't know why that's cheating, then you don't know what perpetual motion is. If you don't know what perpetual motion is, then your friend is not underestimating you, but sizing you up fairly accurately.
I actually have a paper drawing of a mechanically advantaged, magentically initiated type of engine. The guy I climbed El Capitan with is a physics major and he was a little annoyed that my drawing made sense. He refused to help me with it " you don't speak the language of physics " he said. He described it as a rail gun type of engine.
If perpetual motion machines are impossible, why is it illegal in the United States to hold a patent on one?

Alex, don't encourage him ...
Because they don't want someone BSing their way through the patent office.Alexanderthegrape wrote:

It's illegal because the government wants anyone smart enough to create one safely stored away and working for them.
okay, done with this thread, other than to say just defer to puckmercury, he knows his shit.PspRpg-7 wrote:

kinda like all the major oil companies own the most viable patents on alternative fuel designs.
I really hate Tom Goes to the Mayor. I mean, I seriously hate it. It is absolutely void of any redeemable value.
There's a parallel here ... where is it. It's right on the tip of my brain ....

When I said that, I meant they don't want people trying, not people actually getting through it. That would be...icky.

No genuine perpetual motion machine currently exists, and according to certain fundamental laws in physics they cannot exist.
rofl... how old are u ? its impossible.. but If you do somehow manage to make one... be sure to send me details in an email... thanks... i promise not to steal it and become the worlds richest man instantly.
Try to use magnets and a total vacuum (and not even magnets cos over time they lose their magnet "stuff")
Oh and Slicnic, a Pertpetual Motion Machine wont make you the worlds richest man overnight - Cold Fusion will
And you can also forget electricity too - once the power stops, so will the machine.
A perpetual motion machine needs to keep going forever under its own power (which also rules out nuclear fusion - because again the nuclear fuel will eventaully be spent - even if takes 40K years. (Which is STILL a finite
amount of time).

perpetual motion machine= teenager whos just learn how to spank.
i bet this is all a joke about the betting... but hes a complete idiot without doing his research firstAlexanderthegrape wrote:

Get these parts:
-Bread
-Butter
-Cat
-Rope
-Steel pole (40"x1")
Theories implemented:
-Newtons law of gravity
-Laws of nature
-Murphys law
You know what to do..
Either that or a Duracell-bunny.

I need around tree fiddy.
Or just lack of a better idea for a topic, or just trying to be smart.
