Q4. A CNC vertical milling machine has to cut a straight slot of 10 mm width and 2 mm depth by a cutter of 10 mm diameter between points (0, 0) and (100, 100) on the XY plane (dimensions in mm). The feed rate used for milling is 50 mm/min. Milling time for the slot (in seconds) is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Given data: width (b) = 10 mm 
 depth (t) = 2 mm 

points (0, 0) & (100, 100) 


Q5. The tool life equation for HSS tool is 𝑉𝑇0.14𝑓0.7𝑑0.4 = Constant. The tool life (T) of 30 min is obtained using the following cutting conditions: V = 45 m/min, f = 0.35 mm, d = 2.0 mm If speed (V), feed (f) and depth of cut (d) are increased individually by 25%, the tool life (in min) is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Given tool lite equation
𝑉𝑇0.14𝑓0.7𝑑0.4 = C
T = 30 min 
And V = 45 m/min, f = 0.35 mm, d = 2.0 mm 
After increasing 25%, we get 
v’ = 56.25 m/min, 
f’ = 0.4375 mm 
d’= 2.5 mm 


Q6. Consider the line integral   The line C is shown in the figure below.

Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:



Q7. For flow of viscous fluid over a flat plate, if the fluid temperature is the same as the plate temperature, the thermal boundary layer is
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q8. Which one of the following is NOT a decision taken during the aggregate production planning stage?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.


Q9. A cylindrical job with diameter of 200 mm and height of 100 mm is to be cast using modulus method of riser design. Assume that the bottom surface of cylindrical riser does not contribute as cooling surface. If the diameter of the riser is equal to its height, then the height of the riser (in mm) is
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Given that 
for casting dc = 200 mm, hc = 100 mm 
for river dr = hr 
According to modules method
