(a). The rotor of a turbojet engine has a mass of 250 kg and a radius of gyration of 25 cm. The engine rotates at a
speed of 12000 rpm in the clockwise direction if viewed from the front of the aeroplane. The plane while flying at
1500 km/hr turns with a radius of 2 km to the right. Compute the gyroscopic moment the rotor exerts on the plane
structure. Also, determine whether the nose of the plane tends to rise or fall when the plane turns.
