🔍 Key Concepts

• centrifugal force of rotating flyweights and how they move as speed changes • how a spring force can balance or oppose the motion of flyweights • which device on machinery uses flyweights + spring to automatically control speed or output

💭 Think About

• When flyweights spin faster, do they move inward or outward, and what does that motion usually control on an engine or turbine? • Which of the listed devices is typically associated with automatic speed control rather than pressure relief or pressure reduction? • Think of classic steam engines or diesel engines: which component uses spinning weights on arms to adjust fuel or steam flow?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match the function: does the device you pick actually use rotating weights in its normal design? • Check whether the device’s main job is to control speed, relieve overpressure, regulate water level, or reduce pressure—only one commonly uses flyweights. • Be sure you can picture a traditional centrifugal-type mechanism (often shown in old engine diagrams) and link it to the correct term.
