A magnet motor or magnetic motor is a type of perpetual motion machine, which is intended to generate a rotation by means of permanent magnets in stator and rotor without external energy supply. Such a motor is theoretically as well as practically not realizable.
The Simple Magnetic Overunity Toy (SMOT) is a 1985 invention by Greg Watson from Australia that claims to show "over-unity" energy — that is, it supposedly produces more energy than it consumes, a perpetual motion machine. It is a type of magnet motor.
Brownian motors are nanoscale or molecular machines that use chemical reactions to generate directed motion in space. [1] The theory behind Brownian motors relies on the phenomenon of Brownian motion, random motion of particles suspended in a fluid (a liquid or a gas) resulting from their collision with the fast-moving molecules in the fluid.

Schematic figure of a Brownian ratchet. In the philosophy of thermal and statistical physics, the Brownian ratchet or Feynman–Smoluchowski ratchet is an apparent perpetual motion machine of the second kind (converting thermal energy into mechanical work), first analysed in 1912 as a thought experiment by Polish physicist Marian Smoluchowski.

Steorn Ltd (/ ˈ s t j ɔːr n /) was a small, private technology development company based in Dublin, Ireland.In August 2006, it announced that it had developed a technology to provide "free, clean, and constant energy" via an apparent perpetual motion machine, something which is contrary to the law of conservation of energy, a fundamental principle of physics.
Buckwheat. Despite its name, buckwheat doesn’t contain any wheat at all, making it a popular grain in gluten-free diets. While buckwheat groats, or kernels, contain a good amount of protein ...
Anthony Richardson scored on a 2-point conversion run up the middle with 12 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter to give the Indianapolis Colts a 25–24 win over the New England Patriots on ...
A perpetual motion machine of the first kind produces work without the input of energy. It thus violates the law of conservation of energy. A perpetual motion machine of the second kind is a machine that spontaneously converts thermal energy into mechanical work. When the thermal energy is equivalent to the work done, this does not violate the ...
