Perpetual Motion:
The History
of an Obsession
Here was the first hint that perpetual motion of the first kind — the actual creation
of energy — might be a scientific probability and even a possibility. In a later
chapter we will see just how true this was to come. Although perpetual motion
might ...
Arthur W. J. G. Ord-Hume, 2006
Perpetual motion of the first kind, such as Mach's ring, violates the first law of
thermodynamics, which says that energy is neither created nor destroyed. The
second law of thermodynamics says that no device can transfer heat from a
cooler ...

The Mechanics
of Constitutive Modeling
Since the state variables characterize the state, we conclude that Lgtate fimction
= fimction of state variableq (20.5) In order to arrive at the first law of
thermodynamics, we first introduce the concept of a perpetual motion of the first
kind: A ...

Fundamentals
of Classical and Statistical Thermodynamics
The continuous operation of a machine that creates its own energy and thus
violates the first law is called perpetual motion of the first kind. A cyclic device
which would continuously abstract heat from a single reservoir and convert that
heat ...
Bimalendu Narayan Roy, 2002
Perpetual motion of the first kind refers to a machine that keeps on doing work
without any supply of energy. Sounds absurd, doesn't it? I mean can we have a
motor pumping water from a well without being connected to a power supply? -!

Heat Thermodynamics and Statistical Physics: For B.Sc. ...
The first law shows that perpetual motion of the first kind is impossible i.e. energy
can not be created out of nothing or production of energy without disappearance
of an equivalent energy of another form is not possible. The first law has no ...

Equilibrium Thermodynamics
The first law does not allow perpetual motion of the first kind: a machine cannot
operate continuously by creating its own energy (because energy is conserved).
The second law forbids perpetual motion of the second kind: a machine cannot
be ...

An Introduction to Thermal Physics
Suppose then that the Figure 2.3 Hypothetical processes which violate the first
law allow perpetual motion of the first kind work required via B, WB, is greater
than that via A, WA , (so U is not a function of state), and that the path via B is ...

Chemical Thermodynamics: Principles and Applications: ...
The First Law denied the possibility of creating energy in a cyclic process that
returned both system and surroundings to their initial state (perpetual motion of
the first kind). The Second Law denied the possibility of converting heat
completely ...
J. Bevan Ott, Juliana Boerio-Goates, 2000
... first law forbids perpetual motion of the first kind : A machine cannot operate
continuously by creating its own energy. "If all dissipative effects, such as friction,
viscosity or electrical resistance are removed, the motion once started in a device
