In an orthogonal machining operation:
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Uncut thickness $$\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 0.5$$ $$mm$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Cutting speed $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 20$$ $$m/min$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Width of cut $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 5$$ $$mm$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Chip thickness $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 0.7$$ $$mm$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Thrust force$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 200$$ $$N$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Cutting force $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$= 1200$$ $$N$$
$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$Rake angle $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$ = {15^ \circ }$$
Assume Merchant’s theory

The percentage of total energy dissipated due to friction at the tool chip interface is

Two tools $$P$$ and $$Q$$ have signature $${5^ \circ } - {5^ \circ } - {6^ \circ } - {6^ \circ } - {8^ \circ } - {30^ \circ } - 0$$ and $${5^ \circ } - {5^ \circ } - {7^ \circ } - {7^ \circ } - {8^ \circ } - {15^ \circ } - 0$$ (both $$ASA$$) respectively. They are used to turn components under the same machining conditions. If $${h_p}$$ and $${h_Q}$$ denote the peak-to-valley height of surfaces produced by the tools $$P$$ and $$Q$$, the ratio $${h_P}/{h_Q}$$ will be

The figure below shows a graph, which qualitatively relates cutting speed and cost per piece produced.

The three curves $$1,2$$ and $$3$$ respectively represent

In a machining operation, doubling the cutting speed reduces the tool life to $$1/{8^{th}}$$ of the original value. The exponent $$n$$ in Taylor's tool life equation $$V{T^n} = C,$$ is
