Question: A cylindrical disc of a gyroscope of mass m = 15 kg and radius r = 5.0 cm spins with an angular velocity = 330

A cylindrical disc of a gyroscope of mass m = 15 kg and radius r = 5.0 cm spins with an angular velocity ω = 330 rad/s. The distance between the bearings in which the axle of the disc is mounted is equal to l = 15 cm. The axle is forced to oscillate about a horizontal axis with a period T = 1.0 s and amplitude φm = 20°. Find the maximum value of the gyroscopic forces exerted by the axle on the bearings.
