🔍 Key Concepts

• Understand what a half bearing is in marine engineering terms • Know the function and shape of a piston pin bushing, thrust bearing, and spring bearing • Distinguish between bearings that fully surround a shaft vs. those that support only part of its circumference

💭 Think About

• For each listed bearing type, ask: does it typically enclose the shaft all the way around, or only part of the way? • Think about where half bearings are commonly used in engines (e.g., main bearings, connecting rod bearings) and which option is most similar in form and function • Consider whether all the listed bearings share the same basic construction, or if one or more are clearly different in design

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on the definition: a half bearing usually supports roughly half of the shaft circumference and is often used in split bearings • Visualize or sketch how each bearing type contacts the shaft: full circular vs. split/segment type • Before choosing 'All of the above', verify that each listed bearing can truly be constructed and used as a half bearing, not just one of them
