What component uses flyweights in its operation?

Electrical governor
Hydraulic governor
Mechanical governor
Pneumatic governor

The correct answer is: Electrical governor

The correct answer is A, Electrical governor. An electrical governor uses flyweights in its operation. The flyweights are part of a mechanical system within the electrical governor that respond to changes in speed, helping to regulate and control the engine's speed by adjusting the flow of fuel or other factors. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not use flyweights in their operation. Hydraulic governors, mechanical governors, and pneumatic governors do not rely on flyweights to control and regulate the speed of an engine or other machinery.
