🔬#MESExperiments 6: Gyroscopes Precess with Zero Centripetal Force on Ice Even at Horizontal Angle
In #MESExperiments number 6, I repeat my 5th experiment of a precessing gyroscope on ice but this time set the gyroscope at a near horizontal angle. And yet again the gyroscope demonstrates the (mainstream)
🔬#MESExperiments 10: Gyroscopes on a String Can Rise But Not if Sufficient Counterweight is Added
In #MESExperiments 10, I compare two gyro setups when hung by a string: one without a counterweight and one with. The gyroscope without the counterweight is able to precess (magically) upwards from a very
🔬#MESExperiments 12: Gyroscopes at Steeper Angles Usually Means Exponentially Longer Rising Times
In #MESExperiments 12 I demonstrate the observation which usually happens when comparing a gyroscope’s rising time with the initial angle at which it is placed; and is that the rising time tends to increase
