APPARATUS

The rotor is connected to the variable speed motor. The weight of the motor is balanced by

another weight, which is on either side of the rotor. By putting weights on the weight

platform torque can be supplied to rotor, which is also called gyroscopic couple.

SPECIFICATIONS:

1  Rotor dia 250mm free about 3 axis of rotation driven by variable speed motor.

2  Dimmerstat to control the motor speed.

3  Stopwatch measure the angular speed about the axis of precession.

         4  Weights  0.2 kg, 0.5 kg and 1 kg.
