The end product obtained using spinning process is shown in the figure. The initial blank thickness is 2.5 mm. The blank diameter (in mm) is
A 20 mm HSS drill with a point angle of 118° is used for drilling a through hole on a metallic plate of thickness 100 mm with a cutting speed of 333.33 mm/s and feed of 0.22 mm/rev. Assuming that the drill is touching the surface of the plate at the start, the drilling time (in s) is closest to
The heat transfer efficiency in arc welding of a plate using a current of 250 A at 20 V is 90%. The heat required to melt the material is 10 J/mm3. If the cross-sectional area of the weld joint is 30 mm2 and the travel speed is 5 mm/s, the melting efficiency (in %) is ______ (round off to 2 decimal places)
A vertical wellbore is drilled with a 12.25-inch drill bit. While drilling, the bit could drill a total rock volume of 385 ft3 in 6.5 hr. After drilling, the hole diameter throughout the depth is found to be 12.49 inch. The average rate of penetration is ________ ft/hr (rounded off to two decimal places).
