Source sentences:
text: If the gyroscope is not spinning, it acquires angular momentum in the direction of the torque, and it rotates about a horizontal axis, falling over just as we would expect.
text: The only way that can happen is if the gyroscope rotates its angular momentum without changing its speed.
text: If you now tilt the gyroscope to the vertical, so that its spinning disc is in the horizontal plane, you have transferred its angular momentum to the vertical plane.
text: The only way that can happen is if the gyroscope rotates its angular momentum without changing its speed.
text: When the spinning gyroscope is rotating (precessing) horizontally, there is no vertical component of its angular momentum to prevent it from falling under the force of gravity.
