Each arm of a Porter governor is 300 mm long and is pivoted on the axis of rotation. Each ball has a mass of 6 kg and the sleeve weighs 18 kg. The radius of rotation of the ball is 200 mm when the governor 'begins to lift and 250 mm when the speed is maximum. Determine the maximum and the minimum speeds and the range of speed of the governor.
