   2. A hydrostatic circular thrust bearing has the following data:
      Shaft diameter = 300 mm, Diameter of pocket = 200 mm, Shaft speed = 100 rpm,
      Pressure at the pocket = 500 kN/m², Film = 0.07 mm,
      Viscosity of lubricant = 0.05 PaS.
      Determine: (i) Load carrying capacity. (ii) Oil flow rate. (iii) Power loss due to friction.

5. Derive the equations for static load bearing capacity of a rolling element bearing. A ball bearing is operating on work cycle of 3 hours consisting of:
   1. A radial load of 3 kN at 1440 r.p.m for one quarter cycle.
   2. A radial load of 5 kN at 720 r.p.m for half cycle.
   3. A radial load of 2.5 kN at 1440 r.p.m for the remaining cycle.
   The expected life of the bearing is 10000 hours. Calculate the load carrying capacity of the bearing.
