Gyroscopic Couple
Applications:
1.The gyroscopic couple is usually applied through the bearings which
support the shaft. The bearings will resist equal and opposite couple
2.The gyroscopic principle is used in an instrument or toy known as
gyroscope. The gyroscopes are installed in ships in order to minimize
the rolling and pitching effects of waves. They are also used in
aeroplanes, monorail cars, gyrocompasses etc.
