Un corps de révolution, comme une toupie qui tourne très vite autour de son axe et qui est suspendue sans contrainte, garde son axe de rotation pointé vers une direction fixe de l'espace (étoile dans le ciel par exemple) et s'oppose à tout changement de cette direction [...] C'est sur ce principe que fonctionnent les gyroscopes mécaniques. 1, record 1, French, - corps%20de%20r%C3%A9volution
