In a turning operation the tool life of the carbide tool was found to be $$20min$$ and $$100min,$$ at cutting speeds of $$120m/min$$ and $$80m/min$$ respectively. What will be the tool life of the tool under same condition but at a cutting speed of $$100m/min.$$

During orthogonal turning of a steel rod by zero rake tool at feed $$0.25mm/rev$$ and depth of cut $$2.0mm,$$ the following observations were obtained. Tangential component of cutting force $$=1000N$$, Axial component of cutting force $$=500N,$$ chip thickness $$=1.0mm,$$ with the help of diagram determine the yield shear strength of work material under the given cutting conditions.

If in a turning operation both the feed rate and the nose radius are doubled the surface finish values will be

Cutting tools are provided with large positive rake angle mainly for
