Motion of a Pendulum

Description

"When the pendulum is drawn from its vertical position, the force of gravity, MG, is resolved into two components, one of which, MC, produces pressure at the point of support, while the other, MH, acts at right angles to it, producing motion toward N." -Avery 1895
