Question 1 Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
\lambda & =0.5 \mu \mathrm{m} \\
\mathrm{n} & =12 \text { per } 15 \mathrm{~mm} \\
\theta & =\frac{\lambda}{2 \times \frac{15}{12}}=\frac{0.5}{2 \times 15} \times 12 \\

& =9 \mu \mathrm{m}

with a feed rate of a/5 mm/min.

Question 2 Explanation:
\begin{aligned}
V&=(3a)^2 \times 1.5a+ (2a)^2 \times a+(a)^2 \times 0.5a\\
&= 18a^3\\
T&=\frac{V}{\left ( \frac{a}{10} \right )^2 \times \left ( \frac{a}{5} \right )} \\

Question 3 |
A coordinate measuring machine (CMM) is used to determine the distance between Surface
SP and Surface SQ of an approximately cuboidal shaped part. Surface SP is declared as the
datum as per the engineering drawing used for manufacturing this part. The CMM is used
to measure four points P1, P2, P3, P4 on Surface SP, and four points Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4 on
Surface SQ as shown. A regression procedure is used to fit the necessary planes.
The distance between the two fitted planes is _______ mm.

Question 3 Explanation:
Since y-coordinate of all four points P_{1}, P_{2}, P_{3} and \mathrm{P}_{4} is zero. Hence the regression plane fitted by points P_{1}, P_{2}, P_{3} and P_{4} is x-z plane.
The distance of any point (i.e. \mathrm{Q}_{1}, \mathrm{Q}_{2}, \mathrm{Q}_{3} and \mathrm{Q}_{4} ) from x-z plane is equal to y co-ordinate
Therefore,
The distance of Q_{1} from x-z plan =6 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{2} from x-z plan =6 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{3} from x-z plan =4 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{4} from x-z plan =4 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of best fitted plane by Q_{1}, Q_{2}, Q_{3} and Q_{4} from x-z plane is equal to average of 6,6,4 and 4 , which is equal to 5 \mathrm{~mm}.
Hence, the distance between two fitted planes is 5 \mathrm{~mm}.
The distance of any point (i.e. \mathrm{Q}_{1}, \mathrm{Q}_{2}, \mathrm{Q}_{3} and \mathrm{Q}_{4} ) from x-z plane is equal to y co-ordinate
Therefore,
The distance of Q_{1} from x-z plan =6 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{2} from x-z plan =6 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{3} from x-z plan =4 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of Q_{4} from x-z plan =4 \mathrm{~mm}
The distance of best fitted plane by Q_{1}, Q_{2}, Q_{3} and Q_{4} from x-z plane is equal to average of 6,6,4 and 4 , which is equal to 5 \mathrm{~mm}.

Question 4 |
A part, produced in high volumes, is dimensioned as shown. The machining
process making this part is known to be statistically in control based on sampling
data. The sampling data shows that D1 follows a normal distribution with a mean
of 20 mm and a standard deviation of 0.3 mm, while D2 follows a normal
distribution with a mean of 35 mm and a standard deviation of 0.4 mm. An
inspection of dimension C is carried out in a sufficiently large number of parts.
To be considered under six-sigma process control, the upper limit of dimension C should be ______ mm.
(Rounded off to one decimal place)

Question 4 Explanation:
D1 and D2 follow normal distribution.
So,
Upper limit =\mu +3\sigma
Lower limit =\mu -3\sigma
\bar{D1}=20mm, \bar{D2}=35mm, \sigma _{D2}=0.4mm,\sigma _{D1}=0.3mm
Mean value of (\bar{C}) =\bar{D2}-\bar{D1}=35-20-15
Standard Devialtion of C
\sigma _C^2=\sigma _{D2}^2 -\sigma _{D1}^2
\sigma _C=\sqrt{0.4^2-0.3^2}=0.2645
Upper Limit of C \bar{C}+6 \times \sigma _C=15+6 \times 0.2645=16.587
So,
Upper limit =\mu +3\sigma
Lower limit =\mu -3\sigma
\bar{D1}=20mm, \bar{D2}=35mm, \sigma _{D2}=0.4mm,\sigma _{D1}=0.3mm
Mean value of (\bar{C}) =\bar{D2}-\bar{D1}=35-20-15
Standard Devialtion of C
\sigma _C^2=\sigma _{D2}^2 -\sigma _{D1}^2
\sigma _C=\sqrt{0.4^2-0.3^2}=0.2645
Upper Limit of C \bar{C}+6 \times \sigma _C=15+6 \times 0.2645=16.587

A steel sample with 1.5 wt. % carbon (no other alloying elements present) is
slowly cooled from 1100^{\circ}C to just below the eutectoid temperature (723^{\circ}C). A
part of the iron-cementite phase diagram is shown in the figure. The ratio of the
pro-eutectoid cementite content to the total cementite content in the

(Rounded off to two decimal places)
(Rounded off to two decimal places)
0.54 | |
0.35 | |
0.85 | |
0.95 |
Question 5 Explanation:
Mass friction of proeutectoid cementite \mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{Fe}_{3}} C^{\prime}=\frac{1.5-0.8}{6.7-0.8}=0.1186
Mass fraction of total cementite
\mathrm{W}_{\mathrm{Fe}_{3}} \mathrm{C}=\frac{1.5-0.035}{6.7-0.035}=0.2197
So, \quad \frac{W_{F_{3}} C^{\prime}}{W_{F_{e 3}} C}=\frac{0.1186}{0.2197}=0.54
