Deluxe Bicycle Wheel Gyroscope

Product Code : ILS-FAM-11703

Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Deluxe Bicycle Wheel Gyroscope (Product ID: 11703) as part of its forces and motion range. It is a 24 inch (61 cm) bicycle wheel with handles that lets students feel angular momentum and gyroscopic precession.

Quick Answer

Spin the wheel, hold the handles and try to tilt its axle: the faster it spins, the more it resists, because the angular momentum is larger. Supported at one end of the axle, the spinning wheel precesses instead of falling. The large 24 inch (61 cm) diameter makes the effects easy to feel and see. Keep fingers clear of the spokes while it spins.

Where This Is Used

Stand on the Rotating Platform (Product ID: 11702) and turn the spinning wheel to show conservation of angular momentum, the same principle used to change a satellite's orientation. A smaller hand-held option is the Extreme Gyroscope (Product ID: 11704). Browse the full Forces and Motion range or related Applied Mechanics products.
