Gyroscope by Go Science Crazy

A Gyroscope is a fascinating mechanical device that at times seems to defy the laws of gravity. This fun and educational demonstration will teach you why it is that gyroscopes resist changes in direction when spinning. Instructions Included.The gyroscope itself is 10oz in weight and measures 4.44" by 4.25" by 2.22". Includes:• 1 Gyroscope• 1 Plastic gimble and cord• 2 Gyroscope cradles, one rocking and one pivoting• 6 Washers (three large, three small) Used For: Demonstrating angular momentum and inertia in physics lessons.Exploring how gyroscopic stability helps with balance in bicycles and satellites.Showing precession — how the axis of a spinning object moves in response to external forces.Teaching about navigation systems in airplanes, ships, and spacecraft.Encouraging hands-on learning through STEM investigations PRODUCT WARNINGS WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including styrene and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects,
