Question
A disk with mass m = 6.3 kg and radius R = 0.45 m hangs from a rope attached to the ceiling. The disk spins on its axis at a distance r = 1.5 m from the rope and at a frequency f = 19.5 rev/s (with a direction shown by the arrow).

L = I w
I = 1/2 m R2, w = 2 pi f
L = 1/2 m R2 ( 2 pi f ) = m R2 pi f
= 6.3 * 0.452 * pi * 19.5
= 78.15 kg.m2/s
------------------------------------------------
torque due to gravity on disk = m g r
= 6.3 * 9.8 * 1.5
tgravity = 92.61 N.m
-----------------------------------------------
Rate of precession = tgravity / L = 92.61 / 78.15 = 1.19
T = 2 pi / rate = 2 pi / 1.19
= 5.30 s
-----------------------------------------------
right
