b) Rotating at rpm<10
c) Rotating at rpm<5
d) None of the listed
View Answer
Explanation: As name suggests, static load means load during stationary position of the shaft.
2. A total permanent deformation of 0.0001 of the ball diameter is taken for considering static load capacity of the shaft.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: Permissible magnitude of deformation is set as per the experimental data.
3. Stribeck equation gives dynamic load capacity of the bearing.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: It gives static load capacity of the bearing.
4. Which of the following is expression for stribeck equation?(Number of balls=z)?
a) C=kd²z/5
b) C=kd²z/15
c) C=kd²z/10
d) None of the listed
View Answer
Explanation: C=(1/5)zP and P=kd².
5. The life of an individual ball bearing is the time period for which it works without any signs of failures.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: It is measured by number of revolutions and not by time.
6. For majority of bearings, actual life is considerably greater than rated life.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: Stastically it has been proved that life which 50% of a group of bearings will exceed is approximately five times rating of rated life.
7. The dynamic load carrying capacity of a bearing is defined as the radial load in radial bearings that can be carried for a minimum life of 1000 revolutions.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: It is for 1 million revolutions.
8. In the expression of dynamic load capacity P=XVF(r) + YF(a), V stands for ?
a) Race rotation factor
b) Radial factor
c) Thrust factor
d) None of the listed
View Answer
Explanation: It represent race rotation factor which depends upon whether inner race is rotating or outer race.
9. Calculate the bearing life if expected life for 90% bearings is 9000h and shaft is rotating at 1500rpm.
a) 850 million rev
b) 810 million rev
c) 810 h
d) 850h
View Answer
Explanation: L=60x1500x9000/10⁶ million rev.
10. The bearing is subjected to a radial load of 4000N. Expected life for 90% bearings is 9000h and shaft is rotating at 1500rpm. Calculate the dynamic load capacity.
a) 42.21kN
b) 37.29kN
c) 26.33kN
d) 35.22kN
View Answer
Explanation: C=4000x(810)⅓.

a) Extra light series
b) Light series
c) Medium series
d) Heavy series
View Answer
Explanation: 1- Extra light series,2-Light series,3-Medium series,4-heavy series.
13. Needles bearing consist of rollers of small diameter and very small length.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: Also called as quill bearings, they consist of small diameter and comparatively longer b=rollers.
14. Extreme pressure causes ______ wear in the bearing parts.
a) Abrasive
b) Corrosive
c) Pitting
d) All of the mentioned
View Answer
Explanation: Extreme pressure elements in EP additives are added in lubricating oils.
15. Scoring is a ________ phenomenon.
a) Stick-slip
b) Fracture
c) Fatigue
d) In-out
View Answer
Explanation: Alternative welding and shearing takes place.
