Abstract

Whenever a body is rotating or spinning in a plane about an axis and its axis of rotation or spin is made to precess is an another perpendicular plane, the couple is induced on the rotating or spinning body across the axis of rotation or spin in a third mutually perpendicular plane. Conversely, whenever a body is rotating in a plane about an axis and a couple is applied on the rotating body across the axis of rotation or spin in an another perpendicular plane, the rotating or spinning body start processing in a third mutually perpendicular plane. The above stated effects are known as gyroscopic effect. The two things are necessary for existence of gyroscopic effect. (1) Rotating Bod (2) Force or couple trying to change the orientation of axis of rotation of rotating body.
