Re: "simple" pendulum

There is much more in this, mathematically, than I can grasp,
but that is another story.

For example, in the rotating frame of reference the bob
of a conical pendulum moves in a fixed plane (PHI=const).


That's incorrect. The bob of a conical pendulum is in
equilibrium, at rest, in the only rotating frame that
makes sense.
