Question

A twin-spindle drill simultaneously drills one ½-in hole and one
  ¾" through a 1" wide work piece.  Both holes are
  twist drill with 118° point angles.  cutting speed for
  material is 230 ft/min.  The rotation speed of each spindle can
  be configured individually.  The feed rate of both holes
  must be set to the same value, since both spindles go down at the same
  speed.  The forward speed is set in such a way that the speed
  total metal removal does not exceed 1.50 in3
  /min.  Determine: a) the velocity
  maximum feedrate (in/min) that can be used, b) the individual feedrates
  (in/rev) that result in each hole and c) the time required to drill the
  holes.
