perfect quintessence of asian mentality. Knowing does not equate to comprehending. evryone thinks so highly of oneself. no wonder the word creations/breakthroughs never revolved around nerdy,arrogant asians

Transformer is simply a device that transform voltage by means of magnetic field induction. When a high voltage is produce from low voltage, it is equivalent to reduction of current so as to comply with the facts that energy is always conserved. In reality, energy seems not conserved or loss because there is always a leakage path for an energy to escape/leave of the system. As for transformer is concerned, losses due to leakage of magnetic field and also due to the winding resistance.

As for make a smaller joule to create, a bigger joule, it can only be achieve as long as the principle of energy conservation is obeyed. For example, those solar water heater manage to use less electric energy to heat up more water by absorbing heat from the sun and also environment. The only possible way to get smaller joule to create bigger joule is to absorb stray energy in the ambient, including widely known wireless energy.

I thought i have write very clear that energy in overall has yet to be conversed according to the law. My example of creating bigger joule from smaller joule is just an illustration how he use less electrical energy to get more thermal heat throught absorbtion of heat from ambient. In fact, there is no statement in "make a smaller joule to create, a bigger joule" says that no external energy can be absorb. Therefore i can only say if the system manage to absorb energy from embient, then there will be an illusion that some one use smaller joule to get bigger joule. However, the additional joule is the amount of heat absorb from environment.
I just hope some one when  read a statement, be more critical. Most importantly, be more creative, not just simply reject some idea base on common sense.

Many of you here are laughing your ass off at the TS question and giving him a big NO. I think you all are still stuck wil elementary physics.

Of course you all know the that according to the first law of thermodynamics, the quantity of energy in the whole universe is constant. No matter how the form of energy changes, the total amount when measured in joules is the same.

However, there have been a few phenomenas that seem to violate the first law of termodynamics.  I can't remember those phenomenas anymore but I did have a discussion about it with a friend in uni before. Of course, until now we don't understand the phenomena yet nor are we able to replicate it. But in the future maybe the first law of termodynamics will be proven wrong. Scientist are interested in these phenomenas as if we can reproduce them it would mean an infinite source of energy.
