i. Answer the following questions:

1. What are the parameters of a machining operation that are included within the
scope of cutting conditions?
2. Explain the difference between roughing and finishing operations in machining.
3. What is a machine tool?
4. What is an orthogonal cutting model?
5. Name and briefly describe the four types of chips that occur in metal cutting.
6. Identify the four forces that act upon the chip in the orthogonal metal cutting
model but cannot be measured directly in an operation.
7. Identify the two forces that can be measured in the orthogonal metal
cutting model.

ii. Choose the correct answer in the following multiple choice

questions.

1. A roughing operation generally involves which one of the following

combinations of cutting conditions:
(a) high v, f, and d; (b) high v, low f and d; or (c) low v, high f and d
2. A finishing operation generally involves which one of the following
combinations of cutting conditions:
(a) high v, f, and d; (b) high v, low f and d; or (c) low v, high f and d
3. Which one of the four types of chip would be expected in a turning operation
conducted at low cutting speed on a brittle work material:
(a) Continuous, (b) discontinuous, or (c) continuous with built-up edge
4. Which of the following cutting conditions has the strongest effect on cutting
temperature:
(a) feed, (b) speed, or (c) depth of cut
