Unit 5 MCQ

The document discusses different types of bearings and their functions. It provides information on bearings like: 1) Bearings ensure free rotation of shafts with minimum friction, hold shafts in position, and transmit force from the shaft to the frame. 2) Thrust bearings support axial loads along the axis of the shaft. 3) Ball bearings create very little noise due to their point contact design but can have issues with alignment.
