A resolution of Penfield's paradox

A resolution of Penfield's paradox

The theoretical possibility of using the thermal noise from a resistor to drive a motor with armature and field in series is discussed. It is shown that the armature produces thermal noise, thereby establishing a mechanism for thermal equilibrium between the motor and the resistor.
