Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Magnetic perpetual motion machines are scientifically impossible because they violate the foundational laws of conservation of energy and thermodynamics.

The analysis

The retrieved papers consistently support the claim that perpetual motion machines cannot work, linking their failure directly to the conservation of energy and thermodynamic principles. Papers [1], [7], and [11] explicitly address the impossibility of perpetual motion and energy harvesting devices, aligning completely with the claim.
