This Not True Now:
Ai says. From an MSN AI search. I asked “”Why can’t an electric motor power itself?”” It answers “The First Law of Thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only change from one form to another. An electric motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy (motion). A generator does the opposite, converting mechanical energy back into electrical energy. If you connect a motor to a generator in a loop, you cannot get more electrical energy out of the generator than the mechanical energy the motor puts into it.”
Yes you can. If attempted as they describe it above it obviously can’t be done, but it is not true if you run the motor powering the generator on the end of it using the same principle as an internal combustion engine. With a starter and electricity instead of petrol or diesel as fuel. What causes power loss is the loop as they describe it, but you don’t have the loop if the motor and the generator are separate issues. The key is the starter, which might be better attached to the generator and not the motor, the power is from the electricity from the generator, and once running there is more than enough power, and there is no loop. Think of it as an engine that would (WILL) have infinite uses, and not as a stand alone motor trying to increase it’s own power. The Generator is solely for the provision of power to the motor. Use the ‘engine’ to drive another generator if you want to power your house Etcetera.
