Question

The height of a Watt's governor is expressed as

• A. \( h = \frac{g}{\omega} \)
• B. \( h = \frac{2g}{\omega^2} \)
• C. \( h = \frac{g}{2\omega^2} \)
• D. \( h = \frac{g}{\omega^2} \)

Hint:

For Watt's governor, the height is inversely proportional to the square of the angular velocity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: Formula for height of Watt's governor.
The height of a Watt's governor is given by the relation \( h = \frac{g}{\omega^2} \), where \( g \) is the acceleration due to gravity and \( \omega \) is the angular velocity. Step 2: Conclusion.
This is the standard expression used for the height of a Watt's governor. Final Answer: \[ \boxed{\frac{g}{\omega^2}} \]
