Perpetual motion is motion that continues forever without any external source of energy. This is impossible to ever achieve because of friction and other “losses of energy.” (The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.) A perpetual motion machine is a theoretical machine that can do work indefinitely without an energy source. This kind of machine is inaccessible, because it would defy the first and/or second law of thermodynamics.
