🔍 Key Concepts

• Types of bearing damage and what each typically looks like (cracks, scoring, wiping, pitting) • How repeated loading vs. poor lubrication vs. misalignment affect a crankshaft bearing surface • Relationship between surface cracking and cyclic stress over time in rotating machinery

💭 Think About

• Which of the answer choices would most likely create small surface cracks rather than just discoloration, scoring, or overheating marks? • Think about which condition develops gradually from many load cycles, even when lubrication is otherwise acceptable. • For each option, ask: would this mainly cause heat and wear, uneven contact, or tiny cracks from repeated stress?

✅ Before You Answer

• Match "small cracks" specifically to the damage mechanism: not just wear or discoloration. • Consider that insufficient lubrication usually shows up first as scoring, wiping, or overheating rather than fine cracking. • Ask whether misalignment alone would produce cracks, or more commonly uneven wear patterns and localized contact.
