Motorised Gyroscope Apparatus
Product Code : EL-TOML-11020
The Motorised Gyroscope Apparatus from Lab Exports consists of a rotor mounted in bearings, free to rotate about its own axis (spin), the axis of precession and the axis of the gyroscopic couple. The 250 mm diameter rotor is driven by a variable speed motor controlled via a dimmerstat, and its weight is balanced by another weight on either side. By placing weights on the weight platform, torque (the gyroscopic couple) can be applied to the rotor, and a stopwatch is used to measure the angular speed about the axis of precession. Lab Exports manufactures and exports this engineering lab apparatus from India to colleges and technical institutions worldwide.
