  • Abstract
    The design of a simple mechanical speed indicator, consisting of a rotating cup and a ball placed inside of the cup, is described and discussed. This speed indicator can be built to give precise indication through a range of ± 2 per cent of a given speed. The order of precision in reading is about 1/10 of 1 per cent. When driven positively by a synchronous motor, it can be used as an accurate frequency meter.
