16.3.6
The motion of the gyroscope at the surface of the Earth is characterized by the angular velocity of rotation ω1 = - 2i + 40k and the angular precession velocity ω2 = 0.25k. Determine the distance from the fixed point O to the center of gravity C, if the moment of inertia Ioc = 0.004 kg • m2 and the mass of the gyro m = 1 kg. (Answer 4.08 • 10-3)
