  • Sweet.

  • cool! : )

  • how it is possible to make........... can you tell me

  • как так то

  • Boombla ki booooolooooo

  • Maaaaaad !

  • Put 12 of these at 45 degrees around the perimeter of a large disc. Put the unit on a scale and weigh it.

    Now spin all 12 and spin the large disc while on a scale. See any changes?

    You are welcome.

  • care to explain. mind u idk anything about this... but.. if you could.. send it in a pm plz. thanx

  • if you think its a trick your retarded

  • i wanna buy one

  • wow nice magic

  • its not magic, its science. lmao

  • stop killing my imagination

  • LMAO!! okay then, its magic :D

  • i changed my mind it is science... or physics.. or the same thing

  • Witchcraft!!

  • harry potter?

  • wizard of oz

  • BURN THE WITCH!!

  • What's this ?

  • This is not a trick.  It is a simple example of gyroscopic precession.

  • no way.its a trick.

  • i could make one easily =)

  • may people COULD many things, but few of them actually do.

  • i am busy with it right now =/

  • So, the spinning of an internal wheel prevents it from falling to the table immedietly?

  • correct

  • One thing I'm confused about. In the Navy, I got the idea that gyroscopes were used for navigation because they held their position relative to EVERYTHING, not just the gravity field, yet this gyroscope and the cheap ones wobble like crazy.

  • They do provided there C of G is maintained. Otherwise they will precess.

  • Thanks, just disappointed when I bought one of those cheap ones several months ago, and it made me wonder a little. I knew they were integral to the Nav systems in planes and such.

  • Big difference between a gyro in an aircraft instrument and even a nice display gyro. For instance, the gyro in an aircraft instrument spins at a rate of 9000 to 18000 rpm and is mounted on low friction bearings. That does a lot to resist precession and maintain rigidity in space. But nothing's perfect and even the best gyro's succumb to precession for many reasons.

  • thats cool

  • lol
