  1. angular momentum - Anti-gravity wheel? - Physics Stack Exchange

    Aug 15, 2020 · "Anti-Gravity Wheel?" by Veritasium "Anti-Gravity Wheel Explained" by Veritasium It is the second video in particular that bothers me. It seems as if he can lift the wheel up over his head …

  2. How does a gravity car work (and where does the energy come from)?

    Dec 21, 2017 · 2 So I am doing an experiment with gravity car, basically dropping a hanging mass and spins the axle using a pulley system. And then I thought although the work formula W=Fd doesn't …

  3. newtonian mechanics - How exactly does artificial gravity work ...

    May 12, 2019 · Simulated gravity occurs because an acceleration is being applied. If you are in contact with the rotating portion of a rotating-drum style artificial gravity spacecraft, you are being carried …

  4. How does rotational "artificial gravity" differ from normal gravity?

    Nov 13, 2018 · 33 I'm speculating, but the speculation is based on actual physics :). Your physical experience of gravity on a planet and artificial gravity at the outside of a rotating wheel might be …

  5. rotational dynamics - Spinning Wheel subject to Gravitational Force ...

    Jul 3, 2023 · I have a question about the dynamics of a horizontally suspended rotating wheel subjected to the gravitational force, like in the following picture I took from here: At the beginning, the wheel ha...

  6. Why does a precessing wheel remain horizontal, instead of flipping?

    Nov 6, 2021 · As gravity keeps on trying to produce the torque, the direction of the torque changes as the wheel turns ever so slightly. This causes the angular momentum to change again. Hence the …

  7. Which force makes a wheel roll down the hill? What causes friction?

    Gravity is the main cause indeed. But, how exactly? Is it because it makes the wheel rotate around the support point, or is it because of the component of gravity that makes the wheel to try to slide and …

  8. Calculating the Precession - Physics Stack Exchange

    May 19, 2015 · This is the Anti gravity wheel video from Veritassium. I have a similar problem to calculate the forces on arm. How can I calculate the precession force pushing the arm vertically ? …

  9. newtonian mechanics - Why is the force we experience the normal …

    Nov 15, 2021 · The force of gravity acts throughout our body and doesn't stretch or compress us. When we stand on the ground, the normal force from the ground acts at one place, our feet and so we feel …

  10. Torque and angular acceleration with bicycle wheel

    Reason is that weight applied at wheel which produces torque, that changes angular momentum perpendicular to both gravity and angular momentum of wheel due to spinning.
