Question 4 CITY_GUILDS_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2018 • ENGINEERING • objective

In a turning operation the cutting time per part is given by \(t = \dfrac{K}{V}\) where \(K = 0.5\ \text{min·(m/min)}\) and \(V\) is the cutting speed in \(\text{m/min}\). The tool‑life relationship is \(V T^{0.25} = 200\). The cost of a new tool is $50, the machine operating cost is $0.10 per minute, and the material cost per part is $30. Determine the cutting speed \(V\) (in \(\text{m/min}\), to the nearest whole number) that minimises the total cost per part.
