AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) I, which represents the base ring in the illustrated exploded view of a pivoted shoe thrust bearing, SE-0014. The base ring is the stationary outer component that provides the foundation for the thrust bearing assembly. It is the fixed ring upon which the pivoted shoes and other moving components of the thrust bearing are mounted. This identification aligns with the standard conventions used in engineering diagrams and technical illustrations to label the key parts of a thrust bearing assembly. The other options (B, C, D) do not correspond to the base ring in this particular illustration and are therefore incorrect.
