  • it would be more eficient if you have a way to directly spin the liquid.

  • the newest beyblade

  • 0:13 nice nostril buddy

  • This is the effect of gravity..

  • I especially liked the view up your nostril

  • Thumbs up for nostril shot.

  • Do want

  • you spin my head 

  • @wadyati1 RIGHT ROUND

  • hey i didnt think this was a lame video infact this is in my favorite but its in a playlist favorits

  • No, i'm pretty sure it's not a gyroscope. Gyroscopes have at least one pair of intersecting axises. this only has a "Y'' axis. This is just a pinning top with fluid in it which expands to the rims of the inside because of centripetal force.

  • @nathan82206 this is either: a) a great argument, which I cannot deny, or b) a total BS which I cannot tell the difference from the truth, which leads me back to argument A. kudos.

  • @Mgamerz it is simply a gyroscope that isn't mounted on a gimbal. Any spinning object produces a gyroscopic effect.

  • @Mgamerz No, nathan's right, it is just the centripetal force. Still good a demonstration. :D

  • @nathan82206 A gyroscope is any spinning object (including a top). The most efficient gyroscopes are wheel-like with it's mass concentrated about it's perimeter (like a bicycle tire or a flywheel). In any case, there is only one axis of rotation. In this case, the the fluid is pushed to the perimeter by "centrifugal" force and provides the mass, but does not assume nor maintain the speed of rotation and therefore is very inefficient. Centripetal force is provided only by the container.

  • id you have to balance it, then it isn't a gyroscope ... is it?

    wait wait wait...

    now this is getting confusing...

    gyroscopes don't need you to balance them!

    they do it on their own!

    so its not a gyroscope!

    (correct me if i'm wrong)

  • @tjrana0 It balances itself.

  • @tjrana0 You are wrong. It just isn't a very efficient gyroscope.

  • Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Dam, that's cool. Where'd you get it?

  • I think I bought it at my cities Scientific Wizadry before it closed. It's a liquid Gyroscope, and it's a great noisemaker.

  • You made it?

  • No. But it's still awesome.

  • Still cool lol

  • lol POKE IT LIEK YOU MEAN IT :D

  • O_O

  • thats what he said! D:

  • @Mgamerz O_O
