The life of a ball bearing is inversely proportional to________________?

Correct answer: C. (Load)3

  • A. (Load)1
  • B. (Load)2
  • C. (Load)3
  • D. (Load)0.33

For a ball bearing, the basic rating life follows L10 = (C/P)^3, where P is the applied load. Hence life varies inversely as the cube of load, not its first or second power.
