2 - Question

Ruby laser is most efficient when
a) Kept cold
b) Kept hot
c) Kept at normal temperature
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: a
Explanation: Ruby laser is most efficient when it is kept cold. Ruby laser is used to produce a LASER. It generally uses chromium ions to produce LASER.



3 - Question

Time of machining in the laser beam machining process increases with
a) Decrease in power supply
b) Decrease in laser beam spot diameter
c) Increase in cutting speed
d) None of the mentioned
View Answer Answer: b
Explanation: Time of machining in the laser beam machining process is directly proportional to laser beam spot diameter. Larger the diameter, larger will be the HAZ.
