Diameter of punch = Diameter of Blank – 2 × radial clearance – die allowance = 25 – 2 × 0.06 – 0.05 = 24.83 mm
Correct Option: A
Diameter of punch = Diameter of Blank – 2 × radial clearance – die allowance = 25 – 2 × 0.06 – 0.05 = 24.83 mm

Blanking force = τ × As = 300 × πdt = 300 × π × 100 × 1.5 = 141 kN
Correct Option: C
Blanking force = τ × As = 300 × πdt = 300 × π × 100 × 1.5 = 141 kN
Direction: In shear cutting operation, a sheet of 5 mm thickness is cut along a length of 200 mm. The cutting blade is 400 mm long (see figure) and zero-shear (S = 0) is provided on the edge. The ultimate shear strength of the sheet is 100 MPa and penetration to thickness ratio is 0.2. Neglect friction.
- A shear of 20 mm {S = 20 mm) is now provided on the blade. Assuming force vs displacement curve to be trapezoidal, the maximum force (in kN) exerted is

Length = 200 mm , Blade length = 400 mm , Zero shear (s = 0)
Ultimate shear strength of sheet = 100 MPaPenetration = 0.2 = k Thickness
∴ Shear area = (200 + 200) 5 = 2000 mm2
Now Work done = τ × shear area × k.t.
Work done = 100 × 2000 × 5 × 0.2 = 200 Joules∴ Maximum force = Work done (kt + shear) Maximum force = 200 = 9.5 ≈ 10 kN (5 × 0.2 + 20)
Correct Option: D
Length = 200 mm , Blade length = 400 mm , Zero shear (s = 0)
Ultimate shear strength of sheet = 100 MPaPenetration = 0.2 = k Thickness
∴ Shear area = (200 + 200) 5 = 2000 mm2
Now Work done = τ × shear area × k.t.
Work done = 100 × 2000 × 5 × 0.2 = 200 Joules∴ Maximum force = Work done (kt + shear) Maximum force = 200 = 9.5 ≈ 10 kN (5 × 0.2 + 20)
- Assuming force vs displacement curve to be rectangular, the work done (in J) is
