From Fig. 3, one may see that the differential equation of motion of the beam, where 6 is small (less than 1° in this instrument), is d + 2nd+pW = X, (1) where 2/x = SdjI, „ K mAl sin cot sin a niAl cos cot cos a mql sin a ^ K p{h —ho)i mAl sin cot cos a mAl cos cot sin a mgl cos a X^j (d-a) + + The solution of (1) is d = — + e-'^HBe'i + De-'t), (2) p^ where c = {(x^ —p^)^^.
