A Throwaway carbide insert was used to machine a steel work pieces with a cutting speed of $$60$$ $$m/min,$$ tool life of $$40$$ minutes was observed, when the cutting speed was increased to $$100$$ $$m/min,$$ the tool life decreased to $$10$$ minutes. The cutting speed for maximum productivity, if tool change time is $$2$$ minutes is

While turning a $$C15$$ steel of $$160mm$$ diameter at $$215rpm,$$ $$2.5mm$$ depth of cut and feed of $$0.16mm/rev$$ by a tool of geometry $$0-10-8-9-15-75-0mm,$$ the following observations were made. Tangential component of the cutting force $$=500N,$$ axial component of the cutting force $$=200N,$$ chip thickness $$=0.48mm.$$ Determine the dynamic shear strength of the work piece material.
