00:00Ate Shai, what do you notice about this wheel?
00:03It falls because it's pulled by gravity.
00:06That's right, that's right.
00:07But what if I tell you that I can make this wheel stand?
00:12As in, the wheel will jump the gravity?
00:16Something like that. You define the gravity.
00:18How?
00:19Like this, like this.
00:20I'll just rotate this wheel using my hands
00:23to maintain a position like this.
00:25I don't believe you, Kuya Chris.
00:27Because gravity will pull it down, right?
00:30So now, what we'll do is simple.
00:33I'll just hold this.
00:34I'll just spin it as hard as I can.
00:38Hey, it stood up!
00:41It's amazing!
00:42Even though it doesn't have a floor to stand on, right?
00:44Yes, it stood up straight.
00:45It's upright.
00:46It's amazing!
00:47One more, one more.
00:48And it doesn't fall right away.
00:52Wow, the wheel jumped the gravity.
00:56But how did that happen, Kuya Chris?
00:58The science behind this, Ate Shai,
01:00is called gyroscopic precession.
01:02Oh, what's that?
01:04To rotate our wheel,
01:06I put a force on the bottom.
01:08As in, this force will pull it down.
01:11But there's another force here.
01:13It's called torque or twisting force
01:15because of the rotation of our wheel and the angle.
01:18The direction of the torque is different.
01:20This is horizontal and outwards on the axle of our wheel.
01:25Okay.
01:26And the force is counteracted by gravity.
01:29That's why the wheel stands up, right?
01:31I get it, I get it.
01:32It's amazing!
01:33You know what, Kuya Chris?
01:34The science is really amazing!
01:37See?
01:39Okay, so up next,
01:41we have a science that will make you explode
01:43when we come back with...
