the electrons in gold are delocalized and free moving.

the second law, which states that some energy is always lost to the surroundings over time. As a result, the machine will keep losing energy until it comes to a complete stop.

Re: Thermodynamics B/C
RMS (relative molecular speed0 =sqrt(3RT/M)
where R is the ideal gas constant, T is temperature, and M is mass.
