      Dear Action lab dude, (or anyone that can help) I have bought myself one of those nice chunky gyroscopes recently. I'm currently using a Dremel with a custom made rubber bit about the diameter of a penny.
      BUT.... the gyro, beautifully made as it is, could obviously spin faster than a Dremel.... What do you use? Are you aiming higher too? How fast can you get it going by hand? I figured I might have to make a jig to hold it while I spin it up if I get going any faster then a Dremel..... 😎😎😎 Thanks in advance, anyone that can help... 👍😁

    Gyro experiments are one of the bests. It does so many thing unexpected and it’s just interesting to play with it. Perception, self correction, persists direction without any friction (except on axis), direction and speed of perception in different situation, holding a gyro on a spinning chair, alter rotation inertia during rotation, and so on. All these can be easily explained by angular momentum, but still counter-intuitive nature of it makes it amazing.

  • @charlesvanneste2834
    @charlesvanneste2834 Год назад +1

    The real question is where did the centripetal force go? You'll notice that as the gyroscope on the string is precessing, the string remains completely still, yet all the mass should be at the gyroscope (that string should be wiggling everywhere but it doesn't). The center of mass looks like it is at the center of the string. I find this an amazing effect that is almost entirely overlooked.

      Wait, what? A gyroscope large enough to stabilize a boat? It seems like that would have to be very large and prohibitively expensive.
      For an offroad truck, one of those that ramps hills like in motocross, I would think you wouldn't want that. You want the truck to easily tilt back as it's going from flat ground to the base of a hill, and then you want it to tilt forward gradually as it's floating through the air so that it doesn't land on its ass. I've had enough dirt bikes to know that landing with the front wheel way up in the air isn't ideal even if you're landing on flat ground. It also seems like the truck might try to roll to the left or right (just like in the video) as forces influence it to tilt forward or backwards. I picture the truck launching off the hill leaning to one side and then landing on the opposite side, though that may be a bit dramatic.

    Speaking of friction, I watched the video several times, and besides my confusion about friction of what against what causes what, all I heard was what the friction causes, and no deeper explanation as to *why* is does so.

    @deinauge7894 2 года назад +1

    well it's not the complete story you tell... when it comes to the egg or a spinning top rising up when spun fast, it depends on the point where the friction force is applied relative to its direction and the center of mass of the object. there are spinning tops that turn completely around until they spin bottom up, and they work because the center of mass is below the center of the sphere it spins on (if you have seen such a spinning top you know what i mean ...). for a spinning top to work normally, the tip has to be sharper than the whole object. (and if the tip has a flat part, it will never spin upright, but will have a minimal angle away from upright... important is only the part that touches the ground ^^)
    for gyroscopes this doesn't apply because they are build in a way that the spinning part of it is not supported only on a point

      what i wrote about the curvature of the tip can also be described by the friction on rotation and precession (as is done in the video),.

    @Tailspin80 9 месяцев назад

    Good, now could you explain the physics? In mathematical terms. It must be to do with transfer of energy between the spinning top, the processing top and the potential energy (the height of the centre of gravity), with energy being lost through bearing friction and air resistance.

    I've seen 2 gyroscopes keep a bike upright. Why can't 3 gyroscopes levitate, like 2 sticks raising the 1 stick in the middle.the gyro also does not need to be a wheel. I think gyroscopes will be levitation motors

    This very phenomenon is used in aircraft gyroscopes to make them “self-erecting”. Otherwise, you would have to cage the gyro and leave it caged until it spun up to full speed.

      it is standing upright when the rotational speed is *decreased* or spin friction is increased. I couldn't understand the reason

    @johnburgess2084 Год назад +1

    Very interesting. How well does it work in the ideal case of NO friction on the spinning bearing? Specifically I'm referring to powered gyroscopes, like used in airplanes' artificial horizon in decades past, or the Apollo capsule gyros. Is there a difference between a powered gyro that overcomes friction, and one with theoretically perfect bearings with no friction?

    • @arielhermoso4262
      @arielhermoso4262 Год назад

      @johnburgess : Maybe, the gyro designer used a magnetic bearing, so almost no "surface-to-surface" contact transpired between those concerned moving parts... Hence, longer time for rotation, before it come to a complete halt...
      The American NASA group hinted, in the 60's decade, that they used a "liquid helium" as a bearing system, for the gyroscope gadget of their rocketships, used in outerspace exploration, experiments, etc..
      The gyroscope effect + very efficient bearing system, was the SECRET for a "near 95% efficient", HYBRID type, power Genset- thats why, the media & school sector was tight lipped (power moguls directives??..) - when it comes to the design of the very elusive vision, the "near perpetual machine" dream fulfillment...
      Gyroscope principle + angular momentum + "fricrionless system", was the secret contraptions, used by the Almighty Creator God (John 1:3 & Hebrew 1:3 & Genesis 1-2 chap.) - in running those myriads of planets, circumnavigating around the sun, non-stop, in "perpetual motion", for thousands, millions of years...

  • @MeOKMeO
    @MeOKMeO 2 года назад

    Indeed gyroscope is a very simple thing
    the torque of downward tilting acceleration by gravity acted on the lower part of the gyroscope causing a velocity of downward direction acting on the lower part, which then get spinned up to the other position opposing the further tendency of the downward movement of the overall newly lowerpart of the gyroscope, thus maintaining the position of precession at the balanced state of the spinning speed on renewing different parts position of the gyroscope and the downward torque.
