a. Each arm of a Porter governor is 200 mm long and is hinged at a distance of 40 mm from
the axis of rotation. The mass of each ball is 1.5 kg and of the sleeve 25 kg. When the
links are at 30° to the vertical, the sleeve begins to rise at 260 rpm. Assuming that the
friction force is constant, find the maximum and minimum speeds of rotation when the
inclination of the arms to the vertical is 45°.
b. The four arms of a porter governor is 250 mm long. The upper and lower arms are
pivoted to links 40 mm and 50 mm respectively from the axis of rotation. Each ball has a
mass of 5 kg and the sleeve mass is 50 kg. The force of friction on the sleeve of the
mechanism is 40 N. Determine the range of speed of the governor for extreme radii of
rotation of 125 mm and 150 mm.
Consider the force diagrams attached.
A Proell governor has equal arms of length 320 mm. The upper and lower ends of the
arms are pivoted on the axis of the governor. The extension arms of the lower links are
each 50 mm long and parallel to the axis when the radii of rotation of the balls are
150 mm and 200 mm. The mass of each ball is 10 kg and the mass of the central load
is 80 kg.
Determine the range of speed of the governor.
In the engine system shown l = 250 mm and b = 100 mm. The connecting rod BD is assumed to be a 1.2-kg uniform slender rod and is attached to the 1.8-kg piston P. During a test of the system, crank AB is made to rotate with a constant angular velocity of (400) rpm CW with no force applied to the face of the piston. Determine the velocity and acceleration of the piston P when θ = 90°. (Neglect the effect of the weight of the rod.)

During a test of the system, crank AB is made to rotate with a constant angular velocity of 320 rpm CW with no force applied to the face of the piston. Determine the velocity and acceleration of the piston P when 0 = 90°. (Neglect the effect of the weight of the rod.) Doarrow_forwardA flywheel and shaft together have a mass of 800 kg.

Disk A has a radius r and a thickness 2b, while disk B has a radius nr and a thickness 2b.

Each spring has a constant of 500 N/m, and the 200-g uniform disk of 40-mm radius spins at the rate of 10 000 rpm. The springs are stretched and exert equal vertical forces on yoke AB when the airplane is traveling in a straight path. Determine the angle through which the yoke will rotate when the pilot executes a horizontal turn of 750-m radius to the right at a speed of 800 km/h. Indicate whether point A will move up or down.arrow_forward
- Two friction disks A and B are brought into contact when the angular velocity of disk A is 240 rpm counterclockwise and disk B is at rest. A period of slipping follows and disk B makes two revolutions before reaching its final angular velocity. Assuming that the angular acceleration of each disk is constant and inversely proportional to the cube of its radius, determine (a) the angular acceleration of each disk, (b) the time during which the disks slip.arrow_forwardThe mechanism shown is one of two identical mechanisms attached to the two sides of a 200-lb uniform rectangular door. Edge ABC of the door is guided by wheels of negligible mass that roll in horizontal and vertical tracks. A spring with a constant of k = 40 lb/ft is attached to wheel B.

The governor has radius that is 175 mm at mid position. The speed range of the governor is 38 rpm, and the increment in speeds is constant in the three positions.

The mass of each ball is 10 kg and the mass of the central load is 25 kg. The ball rotates at radius 210 mm when the governor is at its lowest setting and 260 mm when it is at its maximum setting. At maximum speed, the vertical distance from the center of the sleeve to the pivot was 500 mm. For another case, it can be seen that the height of the governor will reduce to half values when the ball masses are replaced by three-time larger from the first case.
