34818 Large gyroscope
Overview
For experiments on regular accelerated rotation as well as for investigating gyroscope motion in the absence of forces and in the general case (precession, nutation). Balanced spoke-wheel with a large moment of inertia and a protruding, basket-shaped, ball-bearing hub, which allows arbitrary adjustment of the fulcrum with respect to the centre of gravity. Including a stand base, two bearing rods with hardened points resp. cups and a larger rod for experiments on angular momentum.
