Rotation<br />

Torsion Pendulum<br />

Aluminum Disk from CI-6691<br />

Rotational Accessory<br />

Optical<br />

Rotary<br />

Motion<br />

Sensor.<br />

See pages<br />

2 and 5.<br />

A Force Sensor is used to pull on a string wrapped around<br />

the pulley, creating a real-time plot of torque versus angular<br />

displacement.<br />

Torsion Wire<br />

The slope of the<br />

resulting straight line<br />

is the torsional spring<br />

constant.<br />

Bicycle Gyroscope<br />

From a plot of amplitude versus time, the period of the<br />

torsional pendulum can be determined.<br />

Conservation of Angular Momentum<br />

ME-6837<br />

Precision ball bearings result in extremely low-friction for both<br />

the Bicycle Gyroscope and the Rotating Chair.<br />

Wrap rope around<br />

groove to apply<br />

torque.<br />

Non-marking<br />

Rubber Tire<br />

Rotary Motion Sensor .....................................................CI-6538<br />

ScienceWorkshop 750 Interface .................................................................p. 2<br />

DataStudio Software ............................................................................................p. 4<br />

See page 109 for Rod and Base.<br />

Use a photogate (not included) with built-in spokes<br />

to measure the rotational speed and acceleration<br />

Bicycle Gyroscope Mass Set<br />

ME-6972<br />

Adding masses to the wheel increases its<br />

rotational inertia by over 60%.<br />

Mass securely clamps to the wheel<br />

rim using included screws.<br />

Order Information:<br />

Bicycle Gyroscope Mass Set ...................................ME-6972<br />

(Includes four 400 g masses)<br />

Steel Base<br />

This 6 lb. Bicycle Gyroscope<br />

has a solid 1/2” steel shaft<br />

with cushioned hand grips.<br />

Includes pull-cord to spin up<br />

the wheel.<br />

Rugged design and incredibly low-friction make<br />

this far superior to any office chair.<br />
