Given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.

<h3>What is a perpetual motion machine?</h3>

The perpetual motion machine in one that is able to work continuously without stopping. This would mean that the efficiency of this machine must that the machine is 100% efficient which violates the second law of thermodynamics.

Thus, given the fact that energy conversion is not entirely efficient and energy looses cause machines not function effectively, it is impossible to produce a perpetual motion machine.
