so that equations (9) and (10) for relative equilibrium reduce to

gMh sin E = KQ = Kμ sin θ cos φ = Kμ sin θ sin (δ − E),

(21)

and will change (3) § 6 into

tan E = Kμ sin α cos β,
gMh + Kμ cos α

(22)

a multiplication of (3) § 6 by cos β (Gilbert, Comptes rendus, 1882).

Changing the sign of K or h and E and denoting the revolutions/second of the gyroscope wheel by F, then in the preceding notation, T denoting the period of vibration as a simple pendulum,

tan E = Kμ sin α cos β= F sin α cos β,
gMh − Kμ cos α 86400 A/T2C − F cos α
