Not university level. But maybe we can make it as simple as preschool level, but let me try not to go there. But, besides a feel for leverage, we don't need any other knowledge of physics, or math or theology.
Anyway, I would suggest something like:
- Draw two semi-circles of different radii with the same center point.
They don't have to align. But for starters put one on the left, and one on the right.
Now we somehow 'just know' that the leverage of the larger half would be more than the smaller half.
When some mass at the rim takes this path, then which way would that mass go when it needs to hop from one half of that circle to the other... and then back?
Maybe interesting to note that hopping from one to the other is always in the same direction.
I would discuss such thing when there was room for discussion, but apparently there is not.
Let's just hope that the one who seriously tries to build Bessler's wheel understands such obstacle and knows in which direction things should move.
Your mistake is using the same center point. That is something someone in kindergarten would do. I posted something about this years ago. No one understood the concept of using 2 different axis of rotation. You showed it is something that you're ignorant about.
@all, if things rotate on the same axle/axis, just doesn't matter. He (whoever did the post) created a fictitious argument that sounds plausible. In other words it's pure B.S.
До Свидания 😂
And sadly you said we need no understanding of physics. How would you understand momentum? You wouldn't. This doesn't require understanding Boltzmann's constant, the Stefan-Boltzmann constant or Max Pkanck's constant.
We also do not need to understand how the laws of thermodynamics require an equilibrium to be sought. Kind of why perpetual motion is impossible. Most or about all of what I stated deals with thermodynamics, oyvvus says this forum is about discussing things. Care to discuss constants that involve the laws of thermodynamics?
That is an allowable discussion. Want me to start or will you?
Can we start with how the rate of entropy is influenced by an endothermic environment? I think that would be a good starting point for a 2nd grader.
You can ask AB Hammer for help. He knows what I know 😂
@All, since the 2nd law of thermodynamics states that perpetual motion is impossible, we need to understand the principles in physics relative to thermodynamics. I am capable of doing so. It is in keeping within the requirements of this forum. That is to discuss what is applicable to the topic of perpetual motion.
To ignore the rules of thermodynamic is to ignore the rules of this forum.
AB Hammer teaches us that we must follow the rules.
