A hydraulic press is used to produce circular blanks of $$10$$ $$mm$$ diameter from a sheet of $$2$$ $$mm$$ thickness. If the shear strength of the sheet material is $$400$$ $$N/m{m^2},$$ the force required for producing a circular blank is

Consider the following statements related piercing and blanking
$$1.$$ Shear on the punch reduces the maximum cutting force
$$2.$$ Shear increases the capacity of the press needed
$$3.$$ Shear increases the life of the punch
$$4.$$ Total energy needed to make the cut remains unaltered due to provision of shear

Which of the above statements are correct

Cold working produces the following effects

$$1.$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Stress are set up in the material
$$2.$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Grain structure get distorted
$$3.$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Strength and hardness of the metal are decreased
$$4.$$$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ Surface finish is reduced

Consider the following steps in forging a connecting rod from the bar stock

$$1.$$ blocking $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$$$2.$$ trimming
$$3.$$ finishing$$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,$$ $$4.$$ edging
