Applying Newton's Second Law:
−$$mg\sin{\theta}-\frac{kqQ}{\left[h+l(1-\cos\theta )\right]^2+l^2\sin^2 {\theta}}\sin{(\beta +\theta )} = m\frac{dv}{dt} \; (1)$$
+$$mg\sin{\theta}-\frac{kqQ}{\left[h+l(1-\cos\theta )\right]^2+l^2\sin^2 {\theta}}\sin{(\beta +\theta )} = m\frac{dv}{dt} \tag{1}$$
−where, $$\tan{\beta} = \frac{l\sin{\theta}}{h+l\left(1-\cos\theta\right)} \; (2)$$ and, it is known that $$\sin{(\beta +\theta )} = \sin{\beta}\cos{\theta}+\cos{\beta}\sin{\theta}$$ as $\theta$ is small (small oscillations), $\sin{\theta}\approx\theta$ and $\cos{\theta}\approx1-\theta^2/2$, then $$\sin{(\beta +\theta )} = \sin{\beta}\left(1-\frac{\theta^2}{2}\right)+\theta\cos{\beta} \label{E3} \; (3)$$ Modifying $(2)$, $$\tan{\beta} = \frac{l\theta}{h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}} \; (4)$$ Substituting $(3)$ and $(4)$ into $(1)$ and taking account $\sin{\theta}\approx\theta$

$$mg\theta -\frac{kqQ}{\left(h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}\right)^2+l^2\theta^2}\left[\sin{\beta}\left(1-\frac{\theta^2}{2}\right)+\theta\cos{\beta}\right] = m\frac{dv}{dt} \label{NSLmod}$$
Since angular acceleration is related to lineal acceleration according $dv/dt = \ddot{\theta}l$, dividing all equation by $ml$ and take out $\cos{\beta}$ from second term of left side, it is obtained
−$$\frac{g}{l}\theta -\frac{kqQ\cos{\beta}}{ml\left[\left(h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}\right)^2+l^2\theta^2\right]}\left[\left(1-\frac{\theta^2}{2}\right)\tan{\beta}+\theta\right] = \ddot{\theta} \label{NEq} \; (5)$$
+$$\frac{g}{l}\theta -\frac{kqQ\cos{\beta}}{ml\left[\left(h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}\right)^2+l^2\theta^2\right]}\left[\left(1-\frac{\theta^2}{2}\right)\tan{\beta}+\theta\right] = \ddot{\theta} \label{NEq} \tag{5}$$
Graphically it can be seen that, with cosine and sine approximations applied, $$\cos{\beta} = \frac{h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}}{\sqrt{\left(h+\frac{l\theta^2}{2}\right)^2+l^2\theta^2}}$$ Putting $(4)$ and $(6)$ into $(5)$ and developing algebraically
