bearing going out?

when my car is idling, i can hear a whining noise. when i rev up the motor i cant hear the noise anymore. does this mean that a bearing is going out on one of my accessories (alternator, oil pump, ect..)? I thought at first i heard it coming from the distributor but its hard to tell.

Very hard to tell from that description. What type of engine do you have?

If you open the engine bay and leave the car idling, can you figure out the area it's coming from?
