In a Porter governor, the mass of the central load is
18 kg and the mass of each ball is 2 kg. The top
arms are 250 mm while the bottom arms are each 300 mm long. The
friction of the sleeve is 14 N. If
the top arms make 45° with the axis of rotation in the equilibrium
position, find the range of speed of
the governor in that position.

In this question use the correlation of porter governor to find the range of speed
the range of speed of the governor in that position = 14.82 rpm
