3. Which of the following will give better chip flow?

a) Positive back rake angle tool
b) Negative back rake angle tool
c) Zero back rake angle tool
d) None of the mentioned

Answer:a
Explanation: With positive back rake angle, lip angle
decreases and space for chip flow increases and hence
it will give better chip flow.
4. Which of the following will give large friction during
chip flow?
a) Positive back rake angle tool
b) Negative back rake angle tool
c) Zero back rake angle tool
d) Small lip angle tool
Answer:b
Explanation: With negative back rake angle, lip angle
increases and space for chip flow decreases due to which
it offers large resistance to chip flow.

5. For large positive back rake angle, tool will be

a) Weaker
b) Stronger
c) Smoother
d) Harder

Answer:a
Explanation: With the increase in positive back rake
angle, lip angle decreases and tool tip become thin.
6. For large negative back rake angle, tool will be
a) Weaker
b) Stronger
c) Smoother
d) Harder
Answer:b
Explanation: With an increase in negative back rake
angle, lip angle increases and tool tip become thick and
hence the strength of tool will increase.
7. With an increase in rake angle of tool, tool life will
a) Increase
b) Decrease
c) Remains constant
d) First increase then decrease
Answer:d
Explanation: With an increase in rake angle chip flow rate
increases and hence the heat generated is carried away
with chips at faster rate due to which tool life increases.
For large back rake angle, tool become very thin and its
life decrease.
8. What is the optimum value of positive rake angle in
degrees for maximum tool life?
a) 10
b) 12
c) 15
d) 20
Answer:c
Explanation: At 15 degree chip removal rate and strength
of tool are optimum and hence tool life will be maximum.
9. For machining of carbide material which of the
following tool will be preferred?
a) Large positive rake angle tools
b) Large negative rake angle tools
c) Zero rake angle tools
d) Small point angle tools
View Answer
Answer:b
Explanation: Carbide materials are very hard hence
strong tool is required for their machining. Tools with large
negative back rake angle are stronger.
