What is the definition for the word 'precession'?

The definition of the word precession is the act of preceding. It also means a spinning body, an example of this would be a spinning top. It can be used as a noun or a verb depending on the placement of the word.


When will the next precession begin?

The next precession of the Earth's axis is already in progress and it occurs over a period of about 26,000 years. The exact timing of when one precession cycle ends and another begins is not easily pinpointed.


The wobbling motion of a spinning object is known as?

Precession. This is when the axis of rotation of a spinning object moves in a circular motion around another axis, causing a wobbling effect.


What is the direction of the precession of the gyroscope?

The direction of precession of a gyroscope is perpendicular to the axis of rotation.


Earth and rsquos axis slowly but continuously points in different directions a movement known as .?

Precession. This word is also used for the change in direction of the axis of other rotating objects, e.g. a spinning top.


What is axials?

Axial precession is a word commonly used in astronomy. Axial precession is defined as being a gravity induced change that takes place during an astronomical bodyâ??s rotational axis which has a slow and continuous pattern.

Precession, which in this case refers to a movement of Earth's axis. A full "turn" takes about 26,000 years.

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).
