    High School Flywheel -- Why does it reverse direction after spinning to a stop?

    Every spin returns?

    It happens always, so there is nothing like unequal distribution of mass. And string has nothing to do with it. String is just in this pic I found at Google Images.

    Every flywheel of this type does so.

    It happens the same if there is no string and we just give is a slight push by hand.

    String and weight falls and it continues to rotate until comes to rest and rotates in opposite direction.

    Why does fly wheel return in opposite motion after it comes to rest due to friction?
