Tippe Top

The Tippe Top consists of a slightly flattened sphere, with a metal stem. It looks slightly like a small mushroom!
If you spin the top, it starts to slide and tip over. If you spin it fast enough, it will turn completely upside down, spinning on its stem.
This strange piece of physics was discovered by the German physicist Helen Sperl in 1891.
There are very cheap versions around, made of plastic, but this designer version is made of aluminium, and comes in an elegant foam surround with a cardboard sleeve.
The top is about 35mm high, and the designer and maker of the top is - appropriately enough - German.

@SteelArtschannel 8 лет назад

Very nice :-) Just ordered one ... Can't wait to try it and review it !

@MsLoveshow 11 лет назад

He is saying that it will not scratch, the scratches you see are from before because the table is old.

@eyeplastereyelad3634 3 года назад

In the 70's or 80's these were popular in plastic. I've got a couple of them boxed up with my old toys. Yep, still a cool effect. :)

@a.d.9415 9 лет назад

I believe these originated in Japan. I received some as a gift from a Japanese guest and I think I remember him saying that they were a traditional toy over there, usually made of wood.

@Andytlp 11 лет назад

@Poringez 11 лет назад

that's studio lighting, it is to balance some colours in the shot. i think.

@FlutterBug 8 лет назад

I've had a few of these but made of plastic, hehe :3

@chrisycee 11 лет назад

i think what he is saying is; no, it does not scratch the table, if you saw any scratches it is just because it is an old table

@mastermakerhacker 6 лет назад

Anyone sure as to how this works? I assume the top is hollowed out on purpose to make the top of the handle the center of gravity?

@MelindaGreen 8 лет назад

DANG JOS Reducing a problem to one with a known solution is a time-honored technique, but this one drags in quantum chromodynamics in the process. Holy crap!

@DANGJOS 8 лет назад

Melinda Green Wait what?! Where in the paper was the QCD??

@MelindaGreen 8 лет назад

DANG JOS At the very end. What, you suggested it for me but didn't read it?

@DANGJOS 8 лет назад

Melinda Green I saw your question and remembered seeing an explanation, so I found it and posted it for you. I did skim it over, but I am far too tied up with my own physics exams to thoroughly read it.
