Gyroscope – Classroom Demonstration Model (KS3+) [1383]

The Gyroscope [1383] is a simple, robust, and highly effective teaching aid designed to demonstrate the fundamental principles of rotational motion and stability. Suitable for KS3 and above, this accurate classroom gyroscope is ideal for introducing students to key physics concepts through clear, visual demonstration.

Once set in motion, the gyroscope will run smoothly for more than five minutes, allowing ample time for observation and discussion during lessons. Its reliable performance makes it particularly effective for showing phenomena such as angular momentum, precession, and conservation of energy.

With an approximate height of 18cm, the gyroscope is compact enough for desktop use while remaining large enough for clear viewing during teacher demonstrations. It is well suited to both hands‑on student investigation and whole‑class explanations.
