86tt wrote on Sun, 11 September 2005 03:05 | With some search on the internet, there's even information of great inventors decades ago who have invented combustion engines which are way more efficient than today's design, but instead are threaten, humuliated, arrested, jailed, or just forced out of existence, not sure if it's true either...
|
With some search on the internet, it's possible to find a Nigerian billionaire oil tycoon who wants to send you lots of money. I can forward details if you'd like to know more.
Quote: | The topic about electrolysis is very much debated, but I've heard 2 rumours, #1, electrolysis can be archieved by a "catalyst", catalytic conversion without energy input? (high school chemistry, sounds possible),
|
Someone didn't pay attention in high school physics! A catalyst can speed up a reaction, but it has nothing to do with energy conversion. Creating energy out of thin air violates the laws of thermodynamics, and no-one has ever been able to do this.
Quote: | Many people take the "Conservation of Energy" for granted, what, just if I say, what if this is a big lie, or started off as a big mistake, but turned into a lie, or the Conservation of Energy is just not what we all know about, just a very daring suggestion...
|
Anyone anywhere can go to a library and read all about the Conservation of Energy, and the reasoning behind it. There is no room for lies or conspiracies, it's all there in black and white!
Quote: | Why does spliting the atom create so much energy? Where does the energy come from? Is this consistent with "Conservation of Energy"?
|
Yes. Einstein postulated that matter and energy are interchangeable, and that it is theoretically possible to convert from one to the other. If you were to take one atom and convert it into energy, the formula for the energy released would be:
E = MC^2
In other words, the Energy released (E) is equal to the mass which "disappeared" (M) multiplied by the square of the speed of light (C).
It turns out Einstein was right; when the atom was first split, it was discovered that there was a slight difference in the mass of the nuclear material after the reaction compared to the beginning of the reaction. Mass had "disappeared" and energy had "appeared".
Quote: | Why does your split system air-conditioning produce about 7.5kW of cooling/heating by consuming only 2.5kW of energy???
|
I've often wondered this myself, but I suspect those figures are using different scales. I seriously doubt airconditioners are perpetual motion machines.
You know there's electrons that keeps revolving around atoms, can you stop these atoms spinning??[/quote]
If you can reduce the temperature of matter to absolute zero, its electrons will stop revolving. In theory this is impossible, ie you can never acheive absolute zero.
