How the Earth's precession differ from the Earth's rotation?
Precession refers to a gradual change in the direction of Earth's axis of rotation.
Which motions refers to Earth's spinning on it's axis?
Precession of the equinox.
What is earths precession?
The Earth is a spinning top (gyro) with a different moment of inertia about the spin axis than the other two axis. Therefore, it acts like a spinning top with both precession and nutation. Precession of the polar axis (relative to a 'fixed' distant star) forms a cone. The precession period (~26,000years) is the time it takes for the cone to be traced. Nutation occurs normal to the precession cone and has a much faster period (~18.6yrs).
which best describes precession ?
Earth's axis wobbles.
What is the term for the way tat earth wobbles around its rotation axis?
The Earth doesn't wobble around its rotation axis. The rotation axis itself rotates,so that the Earth's poles trace around a 23.5-degree circle in the sky, every 26,000years. The term that describes it is "precession".The Earth doesn't wobble around its rotation axis.

Is it possible for an object to float in mid air using only gyroscopic precession ( no propelling mechanism )?
No.
Is it possible for an object to float in mid-air using only gyroscopic precession ( no propelling mechanism whatsoever )?
No.
What difference between clockwise and anticlockwise rotation of steam turbine?
1- it is amatter of preference 2- considered under gyroscopic precession
What has the author Abraham A Ungar written?
Abraham A. Ungar has written: 'Beyond the Einstein Addition Law and its Gyroscopic Thomas Precession' -- subject(s): Hyperbolic Geometry, Special relativity (Physics)
What principle of physics is applied in boomerang throwing?
The principle of gyroscopic precession is responsible for the actions of a boomerang in flight. The torque resulting from the aerodynamic lift of the moving object causes a curved axis, and the subsequent path of return.
What is gyroscopic planes?
The plane in which the reactive gyroscipic couple acts is called the gyroscopic plane
What is the principle of gyroscope?
principle of gyroscopic couple ? how gyroscopic coule work in a aroplanes & ship ?
What is gyroscopic motion?
If the precessionnal motion is caused by applying gravitational torque,it is called gyroscopic motion.
Which is thought to be most responsible for earths ice ages?
Earth's precession
Earths tilt does not stay the same because of its what?
precession
What is the earth movement but it takes 26000 years what would it is called?
Precession, which in this case refers to a movement of Earth's axis. A full "turn" takes about 26,000 years.
What is active gyroscopic couple?
