To add to your post:

It's not antigravity. It's not magic. It's gyroscopic effects that are well understood. If you want to see the full lecture:

https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8E9B08118DE0C4EB

It's the 1974 Royal Institution Christmas Lecture. If you watch it all, he'll tell you all about it.

I'd link to hooktube, but I'm not sure if they handle playlists properly. It's a good one.

As for the lectures, they've been doing them for years. I think I've seen all the lectures they have made available - which I think is all those recorded to video. My favorite is with the physicist Dr. Brian Cox. My second favorite is by a chemist and it's mind blowing.

It's not "well understood". Eric Laithwaite's paper was declined because the pathetic "science" establishment doesn't want people to know a simple gyroscope defies man-made "laws" of physics.

TheBuddha

...

Start here:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Laithwaite

Note, he finally came to his senses and admitted that gyroscopes follow Newtonian physics. There's no mystery. It's well understood. Just because you don't understand, doesn't make it magic. It's not magic, it's just weird - until you understand the gyroscopic effects and then, after that, it is pretty intuitive.

matheasysolutions

.... wow. That is one of the most pathetic and slanderous Wikipedia articles out there. He never "admitted" anything. Stop spreading pathetic slanderous lies. But then again we know why you are here... #Disinfo

TheBuddha

F=ma

It's pretty basic.

Ping @the_cat (maybe he's interested in giggling).

That you think I'm here for some sort of "disinfo" makes me giggle. I'm a retired old mathematician in Northwestern Maine. I'm not some disinfo anything. I'm just a people - a people who actually has some grad-school level physics under his belt.

The_Cat

I will never understand the leap (lapse) of logic that leads people to conclude that everything they don't understand must be wrong. It never once occurs to them that they might just be stupid.

TheBuddha

LOL I thought you might get a kick out of this one. He's still going, even though I told him that I was writing not for him but for anyone else who reads this drivel. It was well understood back when I was in school, so I'm not sure how it's not common knowledge. It's even intuitive, if you understand what a gyroscope does.

I tried to be nice, initially. That wore out quickly.

The good news? He didn't stick it in v/science ! I suppose the username should have clued me in and warned me to approach with caution. The sad part is, I was very willing to explain it, as best as I could. I don't think that'd help, however.

Ah well... I figured you'd enjoy the chuckle. Or is that 'chucklefuck?' Do anything interesting today?

The_Cat

People don't use the Internet to search for information, but to search for confirmation of their own genius. Anything else gets rejected as false. To quote a president: "Sad!"

I've been out with the flu, still somehow managed to improvise a talk on my research in front of a bunch of planetologists, which went surprisingly well. And been watching the science sub crumble from afar. Maybe I should do an informative post again, teach something.

TheBuddha

You should!

matheasysolutions

Wow... you just never give up with your disgusting and pathetic slander, and now towards me. Again, what was your pathetic "explanation"? That Eric "admits" Newton's "Laws" aren't violated because mass is transferred (magically)?

Eric Laithwaite literally lifts a 40 lb gyro wheel with one hand as it was a feather: https://youtu.be/VUh6QXe4mMY

What's next, it's "intuitive" a 60+ year old man gains super human strength?

Your pathetic disinfo knows no limits.

TheBuddha

F=ma...

That you think it's some sort of way to efficiently get energy is telling. You neither understand the concept or the explanation.

I'll give ya a hint: You're going to put more energy in than you're going to get out.

Again, this is well understood. It's just seemingly not understood by you. It's okay, we do understand it and will continue to laugh at you. He's a physicist, I'm a mathematician. I've already given you the answer.

F=ma... That's it.

matheasysolutions

Wow... your stupidity is glaring.

TheBuddha

Oh, the irony...

I get it, you've never been special, you're not important to anyone, and you're mentally ill. You want to feel as though you have access to something other people don't have, you want to feel special. You want to believe that you know more than the actual experts.

I can understand that, I really can. I imagine that it'd have to suck going through life without any meaningful accomplishments, recognition, or positive attention. You've been forced off everything but Voat, quite probably. Each time, you've always thought it was them - and never once looked at yourself.

Brush your teeth, take a shower, shave, get a job, and start making something of yourself. Then, you'll start to feel better about yourself and maybe you'll find a real life friend. Who knows, it might even be a woman? Or, a guy, if you float that way...

Once again, feel free to get in the last word.

Force is mass and acceleration. Now, think carefully about where the force is being directed. A word you will also want is torque. Scientists don't need to drop everything and work on this. They already understand it. If you just spend less time responding and more time reading the answers I give, you'd know where to search for very, very complete information.

But, well, you're not actually sane, are you? That's a rhetorical question.

Unlike most people on Voat, I won't suggest you kill yourself. Instead, I suggest you clean up, take a walk, and then come back and read about things like inertia and torque. Then, look back at the F=ma and think about it for a while. You're welcome.

Again, I'm done entertaining your mental illness. Feel free to type whatever you want in response to me. You absolutely don't have the power to hurt my feelings. So, maybe you'll feel better if you type more insane gibberish.

matheasysolutions

.... That doesn't even begin to try to "explain" why a spinning wheel precesses with no angular momentum or centripetal force; or why Eric can lift 40 lbs with one hand above his head as if it were as light as a feather. Again you could just say you don't know how "simple" gyroscopes actually work.

TheBuddha

You should read the whole page, highlight the words you don't understand, and search for them.

By the way, I'm 60 years old and can easily lift 40 pounds. That's not science. Science involves measurements. It has been weighed, measured, and understood. You're just making yourself look silly.

I guess I'm just going to put you on ignore now. I really dislike willful ignorance, even if it's a part of your disease.

matheasysolutions

If you are not willing to think for yourself or just admit you can't explain a "simple" gyroscope, then why are you still replying? I'd like to see you, or anyone, lift 40 lbs with one hand over their head as if it was as light as a feather...

matheasysolutions

Wow... you could've just said you don't have an explanation for how "simple" gyroscopes work. But then again we both know why you are here... Such a pathetic disinfo troll.

matheasysolutions

wow.... F = ma cover up the fact you are spreading pathetic "Wikipedia" lies. A gyroscope precesses with zero angular momentum and centripetal force. Again stop your pathetic disinfo, but then again we know why you are here.

TheBuddha

You've never taken a physics class, have you?

Just because it's too difficult for you to understand, doesn't make it magic. Read a book. Take a class. Take your medication.

matheasysolutions

You just never stop with your garbage.

TheBuddha

I think you have that backwards.

Dude, there's no mystery about how gyroscopes work. The dude himself even came to his senses - you can READ the citation. I know you can read, you keep responding.

Also, voting my replies down only makes you look immature and silly. I don't mind, but you aren't doing your reputation any favors. Go see a psychiatrist. I am a doctor, but not that kind of doctor. Unlike you, I have a PhD in applied mathematics. Read a book!

matheasysolutions

Again stop spreading disgusting slanderous lies. He never "admitted" anything.

TheBuddha

Well, now it's time to embarrass you.

Allow me to quote:

Despite this rejection and the fact that Laithwaite later acknowledged that gyroscopes behave fully in accord with Newtonian mechanics,[2]

Let's see - do you see that "[2]" part? Yeah, that means there's a citation.

That takes you to here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy6hLZ02naM

BBC has blocked it - so fire up your VPN and skip ahead to 20 minutes and then watch the following 10 minutes of the program.

Nah, I'm not writing this for you - I'm writing this so that it's now very public and people can identify you as an idiot. I tried being nice but I'm just not feeling it anymore. I've been progressively losing respect for you as you continue to type responses.

The only one here who is lying is you. I'm the one providing citations. I'm the one giving the math. I'm the one showing the facts.

There's no hidden science. There's just people too stupid to understand the basics. (That's you, in case you don't know.)

And, again, you can vote my comments down all day long. I don't mind. I've got enough CCP to choke a horse. What you lack is enough votes to hide them.

So, everyone will see you're not very intelligent and you're belligerent when threatened with someone smarter than you, that you're unwilling to extricate yourself from your ignorance, and that you'll wallow in your filth for a very, very long time.

For those folks who read this, I'd suggest looking up the psychiatry behind people who believe this shit. They're marginalized, poor, uneducated, and want to feel as if they're special by knowing something other people don't know. That's why they believe in stupid things - like this being hidden science.

It's not hidden science. It's just science.

And now, I'm done with you. You can go ahead and get in the last word. I don't mind. I just need to correct the misinformation you're spreading and, well, I've done that. I've not only done that, I've sourced it.

Have a shitty day.

matheasysolutions

hmmmm interesting. So that makes the Wikipedia article less slanderous, yet still VERY slanderous indeed. My take on your previous responses, and the pathetic Wikipedia article, is that anyone downplaying the still-to-this-day hidden science of gyroscopes has no idea about how physics works. Eric Laithwaite proved he can lift a 40 lb gyroscope with one hand as if it was as light as a feather ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUh6QXe4mMY&list=PLai3U8-WIK0HkT4DmvQSg0XZfY5Bxkxq1&index=2&t=5s) ).

Here is the BBC video but playable worldwide: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2ya0y4

So yes Eric does "admit" that Newton's Laws are not "violated" but explains this by what he terms as "Mass Transfer": http://www.gyroscopes.org/masstran.asp

This "mass transfer" raises even more questions to uncover. Such as "why" does it do this, and how to get some useful electrical energy out of it.

Once again, a heavy spinning wheel precesses without "conventional" centripetal force or "conventional" angular momentum. This doesn't mean that necessarily mean that "Newton's Laws" are wrong in that sense that energy is produced from nothing, but rather that energy/mass/weight is unconventionally being displaced... somehow...

Maybe stop trying to "embarrass" people and stop downplaying the still hidden science of gyroscopes. And especially stop gloating like you've won a gold medal for showing that Eric used a workaround to "admit" Newton's Laws are still valid for precessing gyroscopes, just so he can avoid the pathetic ridicule by the "scientific" establishment.
