A Hartnell type spring loaded governor rotates about a vertical axis. The two rotating masses weigh 10 N each rotate at a radius of 130 mm when the speed is 600 r.p.m. At this speed the arms, which are vertical and horizontal, have effective lengths of 110 mm and 80 mm respectively. The equilibrium sped is 630 r.p.m when the rotating masses are at their maximum radius of 160 mm. Determine the stiffness rate of spring, the compression of spring at 600 r.p.m.

Question
A Hartnell type spring loaded governor rotates
about a vertical axis. The two rotating masses
weigh 10 N each rotate at a radius of 130 mm
when the speed is 600 r.p.m. At this speed the
arms, which are vertical and horizontal, have
effective lengths of 110 mm and 80 mm
respectively. The equilibrium sped is 630 r.p.m
when the rotating masses are at their maximum
radius of 160 mm. Determine the stiffness rate of
spring, the compression of spring at 600 r.p.m.
