A truncated conical pivot bearing which supports an axial load of 20000N from a vertical shaft rotating at 180 rpm has a cone angle of 120°. Its larger diameter is 2.5 times its smaller diameter. The normal pressure on the bearing is not to exceed 36 N/cm. Determine the dimensions of the bearing. If the coefficient of friction is 0.05 for the bearing surface, find the power lost in overcoming the friction.

Question
A truncated conical pivot bearing which supports an axial
load of 20000N from a vertical shaft rotating at 180 rpm has
a cone angle of 120°. Its larger diameter is 2.5 times its
smaller diameter. The normal pressure on the bearing is not
to exceed 36 N/cm. Determine the dimensions of the
bearing. If the coefficient of friction is 0.05 for the bearing
surface, find the power lost in overcoming the friction.
