Important Setup Notes:

  • One of the three of our MITAC gyroscopes does not allow the outer ring to rotate around the vertical axis.

Setup and Procedure:

  1. List steps for setup then procedure.
  2. ...

Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:

  • Keep fingers away from the moving parts of the gyroscope while it is running.

Discussion:

Discuss the physics behind the demonstration, explaining some of the various steps of the demonstration when appropriate.
