Abstract
Two simple cases and a special case are studied for the gyroscope. The time evolution of the angular velocities is analyzed. It can be seen that nutation affects spin angular velocity and the numerical solutions for the special case show that the gyroscope can reverse its spin direction. This is the result of the conservation of angular momenta and this work can be used to teach its role in such cases.
