The Law of Conservation of Energy (excluding nuclear reactions) states that energy is not created or destroyed, merely changed into other forms. That means that any electrical energy gained would be lost from the system. Pick up one of the hand held generators and see how much kinetic energy is needed to create the small electrical potential required to power a LED light or emergency radio..
Agree
Which is why the magnets are moves by mechanical levers to stop this effectIn a system using conventional magnets would end up canceling out any benefit. Although the magnet could attract a steel ball and cause motion, when the ball passed the magnet, the attractive force would result in deceleration of the ball. .
True. Use bigger magnets.It is also know that when energy is transformed, some percent of it is essentially lost (changed into forms that are no practical use). Noise, air resistance, heat, (and the creation of electric energy) are all forms of energy being taken away from the kinetic energy of the ball. That means for the machine to continue working energy must be added (and to generate electricity more energy would have to be added than the electrical energy generated..
