Meriam, Kraige & Bolton β€” Introduction to Three-Dimensional Dynamics of Rigid Bodies: Problem 7_72

7/72 The large satellite-tracking antenna has a moment of inertia $I$ about its $z$-axis of symmetry and a moment of inertia $I_O$ about each of the $x$- and $y$-axes. Determine the angular acceleration $\alpha$ of the antenna about the vertical $Z$-axis caused by a torque $M$ applied about $Z$ by the drive mechanism for a given orientation $\theta$.
