The co-efficient of friction alters by 5 times when a slab is hot rolled instead of cold rolling in a specific rolling mill. The maximum reduction in the thickness of the slab will increase by a factor of

In a tensile test of ductile material, necking starts at

A metallic sheet 1 m wide and 10 mm thick is to be rolled under a front tension force of 100 KN. A specimen from the sheet, tested under tension, shows a yield stress of 100 MPa. Assume plain strain condition during rolling and ignore the friction. If yielding is assumed to start at a roll pressure of σ3 MPa, then the stress in the width direction (where strain is zero) is
