there is this kind of track that has the delicate degree's of ascending and descending slopes and turns that will give the ball enough kinetic energy to start all over again forever
but is really hard to make

whats it called, what degree are the slopes and how many, what material must be used in construction?

I don't doubt you I seen something like it as a kid, also mood rings which actually change colour and not some fassy liquid inside neither, even the crystal shop couldn't tell me the name but they remembered it too :)

wrong. the powersource will be required to spin said wheel (track whatever) and when that runs out.. guess what.. ball = stopped.

scientists have been working for decades. possibly centuries on a machine that can deny the laws of physics by coninually moving without any outside interference. which includes replacing batteries or touching in any way, the machine would be in a vaccume with only electricity and gravity to power it, some say it is impossible. i honestly just love bugging people.
