2. Centrifugal clutch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_clutch

   This works on the principle of centrifugal force, which means when engine speed reaches a specific rpm (Revolutions per minute) it generates enough centrifugal force inside the clutch which results in clutch engagement, and it transmits the engine power. At lower speeds, it disconnects itself to stop power transmission.
