Hi!

I am new to Maple and have a problem I've been struggling with all day.

I have a pendulum and need to find a equation of motion in the y-direction. Please find my code in the picture below.

I can see that my problem starts at Eqy where the differentiation deletes one of the right-hand-side parts because I don't have any function y(t), and Maple thinks y(t) a constant (?)
Can somebody please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thank you in advance!
