Thanks, what i was doing wrong was to convert from revs / s to radians / s was dividing by 2∏ when actually i should have multiplied by ∏! oops! Cheers- physicsguy128

Gyroscopes and the torque required for precession
Homework Statement The Hubble Space Telescope is stabilized to within an angle of about 2 millionths of a degree by means of a series of gyroscopes that spin at 1.92×10^4 rpm. Although the structure of these gyroscopes is actually quite complex, we can model each of the gyroscopes as a...- physicsguy128
