Explanation Given information: The distance from A to the mass center G is GA is equal to k ¯ 2 r ¯ . The length of OG is r ¯ . The length of OA is l . The acceleration due to gravity ( g ) is 9 .81 m/s 2 . Calculation: Show the free body diagram equation for length OG as in Figure (1). Take moment about O in the system for external forces. ( ∑ M O ) e x t e r n a l = W r ¯ sin θ Substitute − m g for W . ( ∑ M O ) e x t e r n a l = − m g r ¯ sin θ Take moment about O in the system for effective forces. ( ∑ M O ) e f f e c t i v e = I α + m a ¯ t r ¯ The effective restoring couple I ¯ α is equal to the product of the centroidal radius of gyration at which the mass of the pendulum and angular acceleration ( m k ¯ 2 θ ¨ ) .

The moment of inertia of a pair of locomotive driving wheels with the axle is 150 kg.m². The distance between the wheel centres is 1.2 m and the diameter of the wheel treads is 2m. Due to defective ballasting one wheel falls by 5 mm and raises again in a total time of 0.2 seconds while the locomotive travels on a level track at 100 kmph. Assuming that the displacement of the wheel takes place with simple harmonic motion about mid point of total fall. Determine the gyroscopic couple produced. Hint: Consider this motion as pitching motion in ship. Draw free body diagram of each link for the following figure E 250 N 200 mm B NT 75° AD-150mm BC-AD-500mm DC-300mm [F450mm
