Perpetual Motion Machines. By Tom Fuan. It has been said that the only truelife example of a perpetual motion machine is a Purdue engineer during exam week. While this may be true, it has not stopped countless inventors from trying to devise a machine which has no external power source, but which once set in motion will never stop.
Magnetic Iron Ore Separator: Thomas Edison invented the magnetic iron ore separator to try to obtain valuable iron ore from abandoned mines. Knowing that there was still valuable iron in these mines, Edison tried to develop a tool that could be used to separate it from the rocks and other debris that were not valuable. Answer and Explanation:
His discovery was placed on a larger scale and was properly titled the magnetic ore separator. Unfortunately, at the same time, around 1880, the Bessemer method of ore extraction was invented, which was just as efficient, but at half the cost of the Edison method. The mining town he built for his mining, named "Edison," fell into ruins.
