  1. Metric thread of 0.8 mm pitch is to be cut on a lathe. Pitch of the lead screw is 1.5 mm. If the spindle rotates at 1500 rpm, the speed of rotation of the lead screw (rpm) will be________.
    1. 900
    2. 700
    3. 800
    4. 400
Correct Option: C

Pitch = 0.8 mm
Nt = 1500 rpm
Ps = 1.5 mm
Ns × P3 × Zz = Nt × Pt × Zt
[Zs = Zt = 1]

Ns =
1500 × 0.8 × 1
1.5 × 1

Ns = 800 rpm
