Oh, Man... Tom.... Your normally so much more accurate then this.<br>All points are relative to each other so there is no way to pick a point without also having it's direction/velocity (wounder if planck time will affect this) <br>It seems pretty likely that you can't create more energy from your portal trick then the amount of energy needed to create the portals. But anyway it wouldn't be infinite as there is a limit to the speed the magnet could fall.,(reply>), @Lucid Moses im fairly sure thats what he meant, finite power over and infinite amount of time. which is still, in the long run anyways, a infinite amount of energy.,(reply>), @GEORGE witton Yup.  And that's exactly why I was commenting on accuracy.   Speculation and magical thinking are fine,  Makes good stories even.   It's just not normally part of Tom's channel and he needs to be a little careful when mixing the two.  <br>Besides, once you bring "magic" or "god done it" then any rational argument goes out the windows.  Just get "magic" to poof in infinite energy and be done with the middle steps.,(reply>), +Lucid Moses he meant that the portals themselves were breaking the laws of physics, not anything else. If you did have magic portals that used no energy like they do in films, then you would be able to theoretically generate power forever, if of course, the universe didn't break down like in real life.,(reply>), @Gamester Powered Ok, so you took that not as infinite power but finite power over and infinite amount of time.   Well.  In that case.  It's also invalid as there can not be and infinite amount of time when it comes to matter.  (see heat death). but I still think when he said an infinite amount of power he meant an infinite amount of power and not a finite amount of power over time.,(reply>), @Lucid Moses<br>It doesn't, it's infinite since the magnet's infinitely falling through the coil and generating electricity.
