Alternate experiment:	by SouthpawPL	2007-08-13 11:53:51
1)Dismount the wheel from a moderate sized bicycle. 2)Hold the ends of the axle in your hands and spin the wheel. 3)Now, turn the wheel along one of the major axis'. Feel the gyroscopic forces come into play? As little as 10 rpm of the wheel generates significant gyroscopic force. A 24" wheel spinning at 25 rpm generates (IIRC) almost 12 pounds of force at the axle! I did this experiment in High School!!
