Why don’t we use magnets to turn turbines and generate electricity?
In: Physics
Magnets by themselves are not an energy source. You can create a device with magnets attached in certain spots that will enhance how long something can spin, but once you attach a generator motor to it, it will quickly stop spinning due to the friction created by the motor.
Energy cannot be created, or destroyed. You can change its form, but you cannot destroy it (IE: Burn gas to create heat energy, this is changing its form).
