Manual metal arc welding is to be used for welding two plates each measuring $$800 \times 200 \times 19mm.$$ Given that
Length of weld $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$:180mm$$
Length of electrode$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$:450mm$$
Stub length$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$:50mm$$
Diameter of electrode $$\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$:3mm$$
Weld reinforcement area $$:10\% $$
Spatter and other losses $$:15\% $$
Root gap $$=$$ land $$=$$ $$2mm$$
Angle of groove$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$:{60^ \circ }$$
Estimate the required number of electrodes for the weld.

Most of the metal cutting heat goes into the

A tube is orthogonally machined in lathe to reduce its length under the following conditions.
Outside diameter of the tube : $$100mm,$$
Inside diameter of the tube $$=96$$ $$mm$$
$$RPM$$ of the work piece $$=120,$$
Longitudinal feed $$=0.5mm/rev$$
Cutting ratio $$=0.3,$$
Tangential force $$=800N,$$
Axial force $$=600N$$
Calculate the chip velocity in $$m/min$$ and the total power consumption in $$KW$$

If the longitudinal feed in center-less grinding is expressed by
$${V_f} = \pi \,D.\,\,N\,\sin \,\alpha ,\,\,D$$ stands for
