What if...

What if one was able to create a sphere out of a one way mirror, so that light would be let in but would not be able to escape. What would happen? Would this create infinite energy? What would happen if the sphere was smashed?

Wait, he already has one of those.... Dangit. -

Unless its solar, how could it make energy?

Just because the energy isn't converted to electricity does not mean there would be no energy. I theorize that the rays of light would bounce off the walls and as more and more light comes in the hotter it gets. Then maybe it could be used to heat water to make steam which can turn turbines much like what burning coal or nuclear reactors do. Just a thought.Unless its solar, how could it make energy?

It would simply suck in all of the light and we'd all die.

Good thought, there are some peeps who could most def help u, maybe pm brown note, greenman, or vishburn, those guys are wise beyond their years ( an im not calling them old) if u pm them, ask thrm politely to comment publicly, this has me interested... 🐰

Interesting idea... Has this been tried before?

Sounds cool!

The reason a one way (or two way) mirror works is because light CAN pass both ways. It all depends on the strength of the light passing from the reflective side of the glass Vs the strength of the light on the opposite side.
If exposed to direct sunlight the spere would merely generate heat. Heat alone is not enough to supply enough power to anything of any use. The problem is finding a way to harness that heat and transform it into a viable source of energy. This is why solar panels have come so far. Because they harness the light and heat to generate power. I'm sure it was a question similar to yours which got boffins on the path to create such things.

Thinking about it though, all you really are describing IS solar power. Lol

Unfortunately one-way mirrors are not strictly one-way and they will in fact let light back out again. And if you managed to make a sphere that didn't let light out it would require the light source to be inside it. That in itself poses its own problem because no matter how small the light source was it would still absorb the light it was producing so as soon as you turn it off the light disappears. Or something like that 😉
