    Lagrangian for a rod pivoting at the end of a clock hand

    For (d), I am confused how ##a(t)## oscillates harmonically. The EOM is ##ml^2\ddot \phi + mRl\varphi \dot \phi\sin(\phi - \varphi t) = 0## Then using ##\phi - \varphi t = a(t)## ##l\ddot \phi + R\phi \varphi a(t) = 0## Where I used the small angle approximation after substituting in ##a(t)##...

    A How can I use a fiber EOM to lock a laser with a large input power?

    I am trying to buy an EOM for a PDH lock with a large laser input power and I was told I should go for a free space EOM. I see that they come as resonant and non-resonant, but I can't seem to understand the advantage of a non-resonant one. The resonant one seems to do pretty much everything the...
