I am about to make something that generates electricity continously that only requires a little effort from us(rotating the dynamo to start the flow) but i am not sure if this thing "really" works.

I'll be connecting the dynamo(12v dc output) to the
inverter(12v dc-220v ac) then the inverter to the
motor(220v ac) then make some mechanism to connect the motor to the dynamo(again) that, i think, will generate electricity continously but not like a "perpetual" motion cause, i know, there's heat which is an energy loss. I am thinking of this thing would be connected to some other appliances like a light bulb which is worth free other than the materials used.

Would that thing really work? Please explain... I need your answer...

yes, but you need to add a few more parts first!(less then 10)

No, it will not work. If you were merely turning the dynamo, then you could potentially power a motor. If you are trying to use the motor to power the dynamo, then something has to turn the motor. You cannot interconnect them without some outside source of power. Also, there is no point unless you are doing efficiency studies. Then you need good meters and a known and controlled outside source of power.
You might try connecting the dynamo to a battery which is connected to the inverter. That would let you store a little power for turning the motor. It might work for a little while, but the motor will never turn the dynamo enough to re-charge the battery while the battery is powering the motor. Eventually, the battery will be exhausted and the motor will cease to run.

That is a good question. I have always been interested in the notion that a motor could be hooked to a generator and after the motor is fired up, simply plug it into the generator. Unfortunately, even if the motor and generator were extremely efficient, friction and electrical resistance will reduce the power to the motor, and, hence, reduce the power to turn the generator - the generator simply can't supply more power than the motor that's turning it, and that would have to be necessary to overcome the loses and keep the motor turning.

NO that would be perpetual motion. Every time u go from electricity to mechanical to electricity . Emergy time u loose about 45% of energy ,weather it is electrical or mechanical .
try just mastering your education and search for the truth

no, continuous and temporary are two very different things
