The wallpaper in the staircase and that carpet No way it would be that clean if i lived in that house. I think i would throw up before i reached the 2nd floor << My name is Luka I would like a wee nose about the house though as i bet its full of interesting stuff with lots of stories. She is also a tad nuts.Noggin wrote: ↑Tue Apr 18, 2023 7:31 pmFelix wrote: ↑Tue Apr 18, 2023 6:06 pm Here @Noggin

Re: utterly random picture thread.
I'm sure it's been mentioned before but the your two motor-sikkle wheels spinning rapidly act like gyroscopes and kid us all into believing we are much better balancing than we really are .

There's more to it than that, I thought it was mainly caster effect but that's still only part of it.Treadeager wrote: ↑Wed Apr 19, 2023 10:34 am I'm sure it's been mentioned before but the your two motor-sikkle wheels spinning rapidly act like gyroscopes and kid us all into believing we are much better balancing than we really are .

Re: utterly random picture thread.
At school in our physics class out teacher gave us a bicycle wheel to old and turn it through a sideways 180arc, iyswim, then he span it and we then had to try and turn it again and so demonstrated the gyroscopic effect!Treadeager wrote: ↑Wed Apr 19, 2023 10:34 am I'm sure it's been mentioned before but the your two motor-sikkle wheels spinning rapidly act like gyroscopes and kid us all into believing we are much better balancing than we really are .

Re: utterly random picture thread.
Pretty sure you could make a perpetual motion machine with enough magnets and gyroscopes. Maybe throw in a newton's cradle just to be sure.
