Assertion: gyroscope's motion | /r/CapableOf | perpendicular to both the gravitational torque
Facets:
Source sentences:
text: The motion resulting from this torque is not downwards, as might be intuitively expected, causing the device to fall, but perpendicular to both the gravitational torque (downwards) and the axis of rotation (outwards from the point of support), i.e. in a forward horizontal direction, causing the device to rotate slowly about the supporting point.
