Paper Clip Motor

this paper clip is held upright by a neodymium, super-strong magnet. It is at the perfect hight so that it holds the paper clip upright but does not pick it up completely. It spins for very long because the paper clip's biggest cause of friction is air resistance, which is very low.

So what was it that you used that looks like a pencil? Additionally: Are those 9 squares magnets and if so, are the same poles facing up? It also looks like there is a big round magnet underneath? And are the nice magnets glued down and if so, to what? As you can see, there is a lot of information that is absent in your video description. Thank you nonetheless for a very interesting demo to say the least.

it was a straw i used to blow it, and no those are not magnets, they're just lego pieces, lol. if they were magnets(no matter how the poles were arranged) it would net let the paperclip stand. the only magnet i used is above the paper clip, just out of the camera's viewing range.

m sorry to burst your bubble but technically thats not an engine..

[pianopuzzleFFR]

first of all, i never said it was an engine, and i know it's not a "motor" either but that's just the title of the video.

air isnt the only friction :P

this is the fastest and longest spin which the paper clip do than micheal jackson

Free energy is bullshit. It is a complete disregard to the "law of the conservation of energy" and to the ppl that say a homopolar motor is free energy, it drains a battery so it isn't free energy!!

@pianopuzzleFFR Why is the magnet out of the viewing range? Seems silly for a video to do such a thing. Is the intent to make it seem like a magic trick?

Free Energy is real and its here! The Oil companies are doing everything in their power to stop these information. If you want a Free energy machine do a search in youtube for the LT MAGNET MOTOR , Join the revolution!

sure. like someone cares.. haha lol

[mixxx693]

cool..

I bet you could make this into a real motor, not unlike the homopolar one with a battery, magnet and little piece of copper coil. I wonder if.....maybe you attached 2 tiny strips of aluminum foil to a battery then did the same experiment with the paperclip just , with it barely brushing each aluminum foil strip as it spun. In the magnetic field it should feel a force everytime it brushed against the foil strips. PS foil strips shouldnt touch.
