50. The voltage-length characteristic of a direct current arc in an arc welding process is
V 100 + 40 , where l is the length of the arc in mm and V is arc voltage in volts. During a welding
operation, the arc length varies between 1 and 2 mm and the welding current is in the range 200-250 A.
Assuming a linear power source, the short circuit current is A.

C is a constant, V is the cutting speed in m/min and T is the tool life in minutes. The Taylor's tool life
equation is 0.25VT 150. The cutting speed (in m/min) for the minimum total cost is .
Key: 57.9
Exp: Cost of metal cutting = Rs 18 C/V
Cost of Tooling = Rs 270 C/TV
C= Constant ,V = Cutting Speed , T = tool life
C = 150, VT0.25
