"3. Is there a formula to convert linear axle movement to vertical chain deflection? That is: if I measure 1 3/4? of chain sag from the horizontal, then pull the axle back so that the chain is now horizontal (I know that this term is inexact), is there a formula that will tell me how much the axle will move laterally?"
Just study up on your catenary curves, and you'll be covered. Wikipedia, Wolfram MathWorld.
