Maximum couple during pitching is given by : (ω: angular velocity of rotor & ωpmax: Maximum angular velocity of precession).

Maximum couple during pitching is given by : (ω: angular velocity of rotor & ωpmax: Maximum angular velocity of precession). Correct Answer Cmax = I. ω. ωpmax

Maximum couple depends on both angular velocity of rotor and angular velocity of precession, therefore it is maximum when ωp is maximum.
