A flywheel of mass 10 kg and radius of gyration 200 mm is spinning about its axis, which is horizontaland is suspended at a point distant 150 mm from the plane of rotation of the flywheel. Determine theangular velocity of precession of the flywheel. The spin speed of flywheel is 900 r.p.m.
For an axisymmetric body under no force, prove (a) that the rate of retrograde precession can never be less than twice the rate of spin of the body about its axis of symmetry, (b) that in Fig. 18.24 the axis of symmetry of the body can never lie within the space cone.
Reference to Figure 18.24:
Given an arbitrary body and three rectangular axes x, y, and z,, prove that the mass moment of inertia of the body with respect to any one of the three axes cannot be larger than the sum of the mass moments of inertia of the body with respect to the other two axes. That is, prove that the inequality Ix ≤ Iy +Iz and the two similar inequalities are satisfied. Furthermore, prove that Iy _> 1/2Ix if the body is a homogeneous solid of revolution, where x is the axis of revolution and y is a transverse axis.
