  • Ans. 

    A single point cutting tool is a tool used in machining to remove material from a workpiece. It has a pointed end and various angles.

    • The tool has a pointed end that is used to cut the material.

    • The angle of the tool is important for achieving the desired cut.

    • The angle of the tool is measured in relation to the workpiece.

    • Common angles for single point cutting tools include 60 degrees, 75 degrees, and 90 degrees.

  • Q5. What is maximum shear stress theory
  • Ans. 

    Maximum shear stress theory is a theory used to determine the failure of materials under shear stress.

    • Also known as Tresca's theory or Guest's theory

    • States that failure occurs when the maximum shear stress in a material exceeds a certain value

    • Used in designing materials for ductile failure

    • Not applicable for brittle materials

    • Formula: τmax = (σ1 - σ2) / 2

    • Where σ1 and σ2 are the principal stresses

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. What is factor of safety and why we use it
  • Ans. 

    Factor of safety is a measure of how much stronger a structure is than it needs to be for its intended purpose.

    • Factor of safety is the ratio of the maximum load a structure can handle to the actual load it is expected to handle.

    • It is used to ensure that a structure or component can withstand unexpected loads or stresses.

    • For example, a bridge may have a factor of safety of 2, meaning it can handle twice the maximum expe...

  • Q7. Draw stress strain diagram of MS, Cast iron
  • Ans. 

    Stress-strain diagrams of MS and cast iron.

    • Mild Steel: linear elastic up to yield point, plastic deformation after that, ultimate strength at fracture point.

    • Cast Iron: brittle material, low ductility, low yield strength, high compressive strength.

    • MS has higher tensile strength than cast iron.

    • MS has higher elongation at break than cast iron.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q8. Which theory of failure is suitable for ductile and which is for brittle
  • Ans. 

    The theory of failure suitable for ductile materials is the Von Mises criterion, and for brittle materials, it is the Maximum Principal Stress theory.

    • Ductile materials undergo plastic deformation before failure, so the Von Mises criterion, which considers the yield strength of the material, is suitable.

    • Brittle materials fail suddenly without any plastic deformation, so the Maximum Principal Stress theory, which conside...

Round 1 - Technical 

(3 Questions)

  • Q1. What is yield strength and ultimate strength
  • Ans. 

    Yield strength is the stress at which a material begins to deform plastically, while ultimate strength is the maximum stress a material can withstand before breaking.

    • Yield strength is the point where a material starts to deform plastically, meaning it will not return to its original shape once the stress is removed.

    • Ultimate strength is the maximum stress a material can withstand before it breaks or fractures.
