I hope most of you know about the gyroscopic effect:
If a rotor rotates about any of the co-ordinate axis,(say x-axis) and if a torque is applied on it along another co-ordinate axis(say y-axis), then the rotor starts rotating along the third co-ordinate axis as well(the z-axis).
here the x-axis is called the axis of rotation , while the y-axis is the axis of precision.
Now the general idea behind the gyroscopic effect is that a rotating element either rotates about one or all the three mutually perpendicular axes.
Now consider, that a brake drum attached to a motor spindle is at rest. the spindle axis is the axis of rotation. now the rotor is made to rotate along the other two mutually perpendicular axes, then would there be rotation along the spindle axis ?
