In an orthogonal cutting operation on a work piece of width $$2.5mm,$$ the uncut chip thickness was $$0.25$$ $$mm$$ and the tool rake angle was $$0$$(zero) degrees. It was observed that the chip thickness was $$1.25mm.$$ The cutting force was measured to be $$900N$$ and the thrust force was found to be $$450N.$$ Find the mean shear strength of the work piece material and if the coefficient of friction between the chip and the tool was $$0.5,$$ what is the machining constant.

The effect of rake angle on the mean friction angle in machining can be explained by
