this is the gyroscope I am talking about:
U52006_01_1200_1200_Gyroscope.jpg

the variables are:
-the angular velocity of the disk
-the angular velocity of precession
-the amount of force "applied" by the disk upward or downward
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Have you tried searching the net for a precession formula?
There will be more variables involved.
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
