    Car gyroscopic effect problem/doubt

    Hi, Thanks for the quick reply..:approve: If there is no suspension (or stiff suspension) and the car is rigid and does not allow any sort of rotation along precession axis, no precession takes place. Will the car still feel heavier to turn? I think that the angular momentum cannot be...

    Car gyroscopic effect problem/doubt

    [SIZE="4"]Problem Statement Suppose a car has mass M. It has a flywheel with axis running from front to back between left and right set of wheels. Let the flywheel have moment of inertia I and let it rotate clockwise at a constant angular velocity of w (omega). The flywheel shaft is held...

    Correct explanation of how gyroscope works?

    Hi, I too have similar doubts about gyroscopes. If you have already figured out the solution by yourself or by some other means could you please explain it to me? :approve: Or if you have not, I would be glad if you can make sense out of the replies given to my question here...

    Gyroscope doubts. Please answer

    Hi, Sorry for the late reply. I tried hard to understand and I thought I need help from people like you. I attempted to get a solution but I am too confused. Please excuse me for asking straight away and not posting my attempts in this thread :redface: I will make my questions simple. If I...

    What Balances the Gyroscope's Gravitational and Precession Torques?

    Gyroscope doubts. Please answer :) Consider the case of a common demonstration which you would find in videos. A bicycle wheel mounted on a shaft is set into rotation, axis is made horizontal and the shaft stays horizontal for sometime and eventually goes down as the wheel spin slows down due...

    Physical significance of vdP (Thermodynamics)

    How does the energy manifest itself and how would it be measurable? It is known that we can measure internal energy (dU) and also work (pdV). What are the possible ways in which the term Vdp affects the properties (like entropy) ?

    Physical significance of vdP (Thermodynamics)

    The difference between Enthalpy and Heat transfer is the term [FONT="Book Antiqua"]vdP as [FONT="Book Antiqua"]dH-dQ=vdP What is the physical significance of the term [FONT="Book Antiqua"]vdP? :rolleyes: Wherever an article describes the difference between enthalpy and heat transfer, it is...
