A loaded porter governor has four links each 250mm long, two revolving masses each of 3kg and a central dead weight of mass 20kg. All the links are attached to respective sleeves at radial distances of 40 mm from the axis of rotation as shown in Figure 03. The masses revolve at a radius of 150mm at minimum speed and at a radius of 200mm at maximum speed. Determine the range of speed.
