Transport wander of a gyroscope is apparent when the gyroscope crosses a meridian that is converging with another. So, at any latitude other than the Equator, any East-West movement will cause transport wander.
As North-South movement involves tracking along a meridian (and not crossing) then no transport wander occurs. Although East-West movement along the Equator does involve crossing meridians, because all meridians are parallel at the Equator no transport wander occurs.

How do you write gyroscope in a sentence?
The satellite was built with a gyroscope to enable it to remain in the correct orientation.
When was the gyroscope invented?
1915
Why is the gyroscope important?
In an airplane the gyroscope is important because it can give positional and directional data to the pilot regardless of G-load or other forces. The gyroscope powers the artificial horizon and the heading indicator, two vital IFR instruments.
Does a gyroscope work better if it is heavier or if it spins faster?
All I know is that if the Gyroscope's wheel is heavier it will precess faster and if it spins faster it will precess slower. But I'm not sure if slower or faster precession creates a more stable gyroscope.
What is gyroscopic effect?
The gyroscopic effect is explained by the behavior of a gyroscope. The behavior of a gyroscope is torque applied perpendicular to its axis of rotation and also perpendicular to its angular momentum.
What is the short sentence of wander?
Here we are free to shop, to visit the museum or just wander at will.
Who invented the first gyroscope?
The Gyroscope was invented by Léon Foucault in 1852.
What are the parts of a gyroscope?
Rotor gyroscope frame spin axis gimbal
When was Australia - Gyroscope song - created?
Australia - Gyroscope song - was created in 2007.
How do you get peregrinate?
peregrinate means to travel or wander from place to place. This can be done by walking or use of any mosde of transport available

Where is the gyroscope shadow of blue on page 22 in I Spy Extreme Challenger?
Top middle of pages 22 and 23. A mechanical gyroscope is essentially a spinning wheel or disk whose axel is free to take any orientation.
Who invented the gyro compass and Gyroscope?
Elmer Ambrose Sperry was the inventor of the gyro compass and gyroscope.
How does an airplane gyroscope work?
A gyroscope in an airplane is firstly a gyroscope, so it works by maintaining its orientation in space. The instruments in an airplane that use a gyroscope are the attitude indicator, the heading indicator and the turn coordinator. The attitude indicator and heading indicator's gyroscope runs when the vacuum pump on the airplane sucks air in and over the blades to cause the gyroscope to spin. When the gyro spins rapidly (up to 18000rpm) it aligns itself upright and the airplane's instrument aligns itself.
