🔬#MESExperiments 16: Gyroscopes Can Even Rise on the Tip of a Thin Needle!
In #MESExperiments 16 I demonstrate one of the most fascinating demonstrations ever conducted, and which even baffled my mind when I first tried it out. A gyroscope can even rise while precessing at the tip of a needle! Yes, a needle… The gyroscope is literally dangling in midair with nothing to hold on to but the tiny tip of the needle. I’ve included a zoomed in box during the gyro rising to show a close up of the stem and needle. This is some truly breath-taking stuff!
The progression of the gyro experiment and numerical results are listed below:
- Initial Gyro Angle: 47°
- Rising Time: 0:40 - 0:04 = 36 seconds.
- Sleep Time: 0:58 - 0:40 = 18 seconds.
- Time to Fall: 1:02 - 0:04 = 58 seconds.
- Total Spin Time: 2:45 - 0:04 = 2:41 = 161 seconds.
- Note: Very interesting loud noise coming from the gyro at the 20 seconds mark during rising.
Note that the gyroscope weighed 100.29 grams and the needle is less than 0.5 mm thin.
