The wheel is held in a vertical plane passing through the axis of the stool. If the spinning wheel is turned into a horizontal plane, the stool will rotate in the opposite sense to the spin of the wheel. 66 tag:techtv.mit.edu,:Array/185233680 2008-10-28 13:01:27 -0400 Dept. of Chemistry 5.07 Biological Chemistry Lecture 10/15/08 3162
