Kreisel
Sign in to saveAlso known as spinning top, spintop, toy top, top toy
starrer Körper, der um eine Achse rotiert
A top is a toy that spins rapidly on the ground, and its spinning motion keeps it balanced upright on its tip rather than falling over. It matters because it's a classic example of how rotational physics works in practice—the spinning creates inertia that stabilizes the top, making it a simple yet fascinating demonstration of how motion can defy what seems like it should happen.

Ein Kreisel ist ein (starrer) Körper, der um eine Achse rotiert. Er kann sich ansonsten frei bewegen (freier Kreisel), kann aber auch mit einer Achse in eine bestimmte Richtung gezwungen sein (gefesselter Kreisel). Kreisel müssen in der Physik nicht notwendigerweise rotationssymmetrisch sein.
