    This will not work because of Neil deGrasse Tyson's E = MC Squared. You have to put a second magnet for the other magnet to attract thus pulling it forward.

    I intuitively sense that this will not work, but I can't articulate why. It's not obvious to me where the pull of the magnet will be exerted.

      The magnet is pulled towards the metallic object as well, which cancels out any momentum you might expect for the attached car

        equal force will be exerted in both directions, making the net zero.

        If you stand in a garbage can and try to pull yourself up, you won’t float.

        It can’t go that direction though because of the arm. This will actually work

      Being pushed away from one repulsive magnet pushes you TOWARD the next repulsive magnet. It's like rolling a ball down a hill only for the path to lead up another hill. At best, the ball can go up and down hills forever, provided the subsequent hill is no taller than the last and absolutely no energy is lost.
      "Perpetual motion" is such a shitty misnomer, because in the theoretical limit, lots of machines could conceivably run forever. But only if you extract no energy from them.

      All these problems boil down to the problem that space itself is symmetric (particularly time-symmetric). If there were a region of space where Newton's third law didn't apply, you could extract infinite energy in the same way a lot of videogame glitches work:

          Getting electricity out of the system slows down the spinning, just like how friction sapping momentum out of the ball will eventually cause it to teeter back-and-fourth between two hills like a half pipe. Until it eventually comes to a complete stop an equilibrium position at the lowest point between the hills.
          In the original magnet picture, this point is somewhere between two magnets.

    It sucks how magnets have infinite energy and scientists can't figure out how to tap into it. The shit about perpetual energy not being possible is just a cope for their ineptitude. A magnet on a fridge will cling to a fridge forever. The display of a magnet's limitless power is staring us right in the face and all people can do is make crying wojak faces and say "IT ISN'T POSSIBLE TO HARNESS THAT POWER WITHOUT EXTERNAL FORCES INFLUENCING IT!"

    many ITT anons say it's possible, but the fact is that the magnet's pulling strength weakens over time so the magnet will no longer be able to pull the car. and the magnet must have a strong magnetic field that has energy greater than the weight of the car to work

        Alright, say I take a rope, let's try to break physics with a rope, I put myself on a near frictionless trolly and tie one side of the rope to myself and I hold the other side with my arm. I steadily pull myself with the rope, but of course I go nowhere. I am doing no work. I'm exerting force, sure, I'm pulling myself with the rope, and yet I have not changed the system of the cart's speed, because every force I've applied to myself is balanced by another that is on the cart too. Nothing that I'm doing is affecting the cart, I'm just pulling on myself.

          the arm (and the rope) is pulling away from the body. the magnet and the iron plate are being pulled towards one another. so, again, not entirely accurate.

    Because the item holding the magnet would receive the forward force of the metal and the reverse force of the magnet.

    You don't need the heavy iron plate, the car can be made out of the same material. Also no need for any distance between the magnet and vehicle since the force is inversely proportional to the distance squared, these two improvements will make it work since it will be enough for a positive net energy extracted to power the motor and accelerate the vehicle.
