In a Wilson-Hartnell type of governor, the mass of each ball is 5 kg. The lengths of the ball arm and the sleeve arm of each bell-crank lever are 100 mm and 80 mm respectively. The stiffness of each of the two springs attached directly to the balls is 0.4 N/ mm. The lever for the auxiliary spring is pivoted at its midpoint. When the radius of rotation is 100 mm, the equilibrium speed is 200 rpm. If the sleeve is lifted by 8 mm for an increase of speed of 6%, find the required stiffness of the auxiliary spring.

Question
In a Wilson-Hartnell type of
governor, the mass of each
ball is 5 kg. The lengths of the
ball arm and the sleeve arm of
each bell-crank lever are 100 mm and 80 mm
respectively. The stiffness of each of the two
springs attached directly to the balls is 0.4 N/
mm. The lever for the auxiliary spring is pivoted
at its midpoint. When the radius of rotation is
100 mm, the equilibrium speed is 200 rpm. If the
sleeve is lifted by 8 mm for an increase of speed
of 6%, find the required stiffness of the auxiliary
spring.
