Laws of gyroscopes/ cardanic gyroscope
Precession frequency as a function of the gyro frequency for different additional masses.
Principle
Gyroscope, Magnus type, incl. handbook
If the axis of rotation of the force-free gyroscope is displaced slightly, a nutation is produced. The relationship between precession frequency or nutation frequency and gyro-frequency is examined for different moments of inertia. Additional weights are applied to a gyroscope mounted on gimbals, so causing a precession. Tasks 1. To determine the precession frequency as a function of the torque and the angular velocity of the gyroscope. 2. To determine the nutational frequency as a function of the angular velocity and the moment of inertia. What you can learn about ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪ ▪
