Description

GYROSCOPE

GYROSCOPE:

This is a device used for measuring or maintaining orientation and angular velocity. It is a spinning wheel or disc in which the axis of rotation is free to assume any orientation by itself.

Specifications:

• A traditional piece of equipment for exploring the principle of conservation of angular momentum.
• Other associated phenomena of gyroscope like gyroscopic stabilization, inertial guidance, gyrocompass, principle of precesion etc.
• Comprises a heavy metal roller disc, dynamically balanced, with metal shaft mounted in cone bearings carried on a plastic gimble 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.
• Shaft seat has provision on the outside for suspending washers through hook for loading to study the precesion, supplied complete with winding cord, S-shaped hook and set of washers for loading.
