A top is set spinning so that the rotation is counterclockwise around its axis when viewed from above. When the top is placed on a level surface it happens that its axis of rotation is not quite vertical. Viewed from above, which way does the rotational axis of the top precess?

◦
clockwise

◦
counterclockwise

◦
It's random, if it starts clockwise it will continue clockwise, and vice versa, i.e., a 50% chance either way.

◦
The direction depends on the little shove given to the axis when the top is placed on the surface.

◦
In the northern hemisphere it will be clockwise, in the southern hemisphere it will be counterclockwise.
