Summary
Gyroscope Precession
is the phenomenon where the axis of a
Spinning gyroscope
moves perpendicular to the axis of an
Applied torque
, resulting in a
Change in the orientation
of the
Rotational Axis
. This behavior is a consequence of the
Conservation Of
Angular Momentum
and is influenced by factors such as the gyroscope's
Angular Velocity
and the
Magnitude of the applied force
.
