the diagram (Fig. 228) the oovernor ball is shown in threedifferent positions, with radii de, fb, and gh respectively. If ab bethe common scale of W, the weight of the ball, then the trianglesach, afb, and aib are respectively the triangles of forces, and cb, fb,and ib respectively are the… … Fig. 228. Tic. 220. lengths de, ce, and he respecti^ely represent both the radius r and thecentrifugal force F. To compare these two cases, Figs. 228 and 229, by plotting theresults and superposing them, let Fig. 230 be constructed, makingthe ordinates = F and the abscissae = r.We shall then have…
