Will this gyroscope do...? http://einstein.stanford.edu/content/lithos/VIP_Lithos-5.pdf
Also, isn't that converting rotational potential to electricity? Gravity is not responsible for procession... yes? -john -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 02, 2006 12:47 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Precessional Work I posted this elsewhere; but, Vorts deserve a chance to poo-poo it. Thanks to Beene and Grimer for the inspiration. Imagine a gyroscope with zero bearing friction and windage. It is anchored at the base axle. The top axle is attached to a point on the edge of a wheel. The wheel will rotate slowly due to the precession of the gyroscope. If the wheel turns another axle which turns a generator, you have just made a device which converts gravity to electricity. N'est-ce pas?
