axis.
The only variable in this above equation is ωp this
precession velocity changes as the angle of
precession changes. Therefore its observed that as
the vehicle comes to near stabilization state the tilt
of the gyroscope is oscillating within small
angular range. That means the reactive couple is
almost equal & opposite to the disturbing couple.
