Hi friend,
A Gyroscope is a spatial mechanism and generally employed for the control of
angular motion of a body
______________________________________________________________
If we attempt to move some of its parts, it does not only resist this motion but even evades it. This
resistance to change in the direction of rotational axis is called the gyroscopic effect.
______________________________________________________________
Applications of gyroscopes are:
(1) For directional control e.g.
(i) gyro compass : for air planes & ships.
(ii) inertial guidance control system: for missiles & space travel.
(2) Gyroscopic effects are encountered in the bearings of
(i). an automobile when it makes a turn and
(ii) a jet engine shaft as the airplane changes direction.
(3) For high speed rotors precession becomes more and more predominant and should be accounted in the design process.
_____________________________________________________________
It can be easily studied using the principle of angular momentum. Angular velocity is a vector quantity. Change in magnitude and direction of angular velocity results in angular acceleration
