Explanation of Solution

The success of the operating and functioning of the machine mainly depends upon the properties of the materials used in it; such properties of the materials provide the significant influence for proper conditioning the machines.

The properties and characteristics of the work material can be termed as “machinability”. The machinability of the material can be determined by determining how easily it can be machined by using an appropriate cutting tool under certain conditions.

Thus, the term machinability has been explained.
