The 1-lb top has a center of gravity at point G. If it spins about its axis of symmetry and precesses about the vertical axis at constant rates of ω_s = 60 rad/s and ω_p = 10 rad/s, respectively, determine the steady state angle θ. The radius of gyration of the top about the z axis is k_z = 1 in., and about the x and y axes it is k_x = k_y = 4 in.
