Question:medium

According to the Taylor's tool life equation, if the cutting speed is halved with index \( n = 0.25 \), then the tool life:

Show Hint

A useful shortcut derived from Taylor's equation is: \[ \frac{T_2}{T_1} = \left(\frac{V_1}{V_2}\right)^{\frac{1}{n}} \] Substituting the values gives: \((2)^{\frac{1}{0.25}} = 2^4 = 16\).
