Sensitiveness of a governor is

  • A. The ratio of the difference between the maximum and minimum equilibrium speed to the mean equilibrium speed
  • B. The ratio of the maximum speed to minimum speed within the operating range
  • C. The ratio of the difference between the maximum and mean speed to that of minimum to mean speed
  • D. The range of variation of engine speed

Answer: A. The ratio of the difference between the maximum and minimum equilibrium speed to the mean equilibrium speed

Explanation: Sensitivity = $(N_2 - N_1) / N_{mean}$.
