| Summary: | The physics of gyroscopic effects are more complex than presented in existing mathematical models. The effects presented by these models do not match the real forces acting on gyroscopic devices. New research in this area has demonstrated that a system of inertial torques, which are generated by the rotating mass of spinning objects, acts upon a gyroscope. The actions of the system of inertial forces are validated by practical tests of the motions of a gyroscope with one side support. The action of external load torque on a gyroscope with one side support demonstrates that the gyroscope’s upward motion is wrongly called an “antigravity” effect. The upward motion of a gyroscope is the result of precession torque around its horizontal axis. The novelty of the present work is related to the mathematical models for the upward and downward motions of gyroscopes influenced by external torque around the vertical axis. This analytical research describes the physics of gyroscopes’ upward motion and validates that gyroscopes do not possess an antigravity property. |
