A traditional piece of equipment for exploring the principle of conservation of angular
momentum, and other associated phenomena of gyroscope like gyroscopic stabilization,
inertial guidance, gyrocompass, principle of precession etc.
Comprises a heavy metal roller disc, dynamically balanced, with metal shaft mounted in cone
bearings carried on a plastic gimbal ring for smooth, low friction motion.
The shaft has a hole towards one side of rotor disc for winding of thread to spin the rotor.
This easily removable assembly can either be placed on cradle mounted on simple plain base
or on a rocking base for studying the concept of rolling or pitching.
Shaft seat has provision on the outside for suspending washers through hook for loading to
study the precession, supplied complete with winding cord, S-shaped hook and set of washers
for loading.
