    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    I don’t understand quite well a question. If the platform doesn’t fall is because the force on the top of the tower is very small, isn’t it? Much smaller than the weight of the gyroscope. If the tower makes another equal reaction upwards, is it right that the F=ma(cm)? If the gyroscope is...

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    Thanks a lot for the videos.Unfortunately my english is not so good and I cannot understand whet they say. It´s right for me that the center of mass rotation makes a centrifugal force. All of you say that it´s very small,but is it possible to be calculated through mv2/r or is it smaller that...

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    I can say after these answers that are impossible the precession without friction and with vacuum?

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    Yes the center of mass is jumping the whole time between two points. Look at the video

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    I agree with you, but that makes me doubt again. If no friction makes to slide the gyroscope, How does it precess the top of LEVITRON if the axe hasn’t got friction? Is it made by the friction with the air? It’s difficult for me to understand it. Alberto

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    I understand the examples you explain. So, my doubt is still with me. We imagine a gyroscope with horizontal precess which receives a first impulsion to avoid the nutation as the one in the picture. It’s right for me that center of mass moves with angular and constant velocity around fulcrum...

    Does a gyroscope centripetal force?

    After reading in specialized Physics books and different articles, I’m still thinking about gyroscopical precession. I understand everything about angular momentum, torques…, but if center of masses makes a circular movement, Where does it provide centripetal force? Could it be for the axe...
