For two governors A and B, the lift of sleeve of governor A is more than that of governor B, for a given fractional change in speed. It indicates that

A governor A is more sensitive than governor B
B governor B is more sensitive than governor A
C both governors A and B are equally sensitive
D none of the mentioned

Correct Answer: governor A is more sensitive than governor B

The greater the lift of the sleeve corresponding to a given fractional change in speed, the greater is the sensitiveness of the governor. It may also be stated in another way that for a given lift of the sleeve, the sensitiveness of the governor increases as the speed range decreases.
