TM II Tutorial

This document contains 4 tutorial problems involving gyroscopic effects, cam design, gear trains, and locomotive/motor balancing: 1) The first problem involves calculating the gyroscopic reaction of an airplane propeller rotating at 1000 RPM on an aircraft making a left turn of 150m radius while traveling at 200kph. 2) The second problem involves calculating dimensions, accelerations, and velocities for a cam with 60° angle operating a roller follower with 15mm lift rotating at 200 RPM. 3) The third problem calculates rail pressures on a curved track for a 4-wheeled trolley of 2000kg rounding a 25m radius curve at 40kph, accounting for centrifugal and gyroscopic forces.
