5. The arms of a Porter governor are 300 mm long. The upper arms are pivoted on the axis of rotation and the lower arms are attached to the sleeve at a distance of 35 mm from the axis of rotation. The load on the sleeve is 54 kg and the mass of each ball is 7 kg. Determine the equilibrium speed when the radius of the balls is 225 mm. What will be the range of speed for this position, if the frictional resistances to the motion of the sleeve are equivalent to a force of 30 N?
