ok guys I don't know what the hell this means please help if ya can?
translate this automobile into liters, bore 84 mm. stroke of 75 mm. 6 cylinder engine.

ok here's the formula you need.
Displacement = # Cylinders X 0.785 X BORE X BORE X STROKE.
84mm is 8.4cm and 75 mm is 7.5cm
plug them in and it looks something like this
Displacement = 6 x 0.785 x 8.4 x 8.4 x 7.5 = 2493 cubic centimeters, or roughly 2.5 Liters of displacement.
so its 2.5 liters.....
Displacement = # Cylinders X 0.785 X BORE X BORE X STROKE.
84mm is 8.4cm and 75 mm is 7.5cm
plug them in and it looks something like this
Displacement = 6 x 0.785 x 8.4 x 8.4 x 7.5 = 2493 cubic centimeters, or roughly 2.5 Liters of displacement.
so its 2.5 liters.....

Did you just know that off the top of your head?

um, it's simple geometry. You want to know the total volume of several cylinders. You know the diameter (bore) of each cylinder, and the height (stroke) of each. Volume of a cylinder is pi*D^2/4*height. pi/4 is roughly 0.785, so 0.785*bore^2*stroke is the volume of each cylinder. The volume of all the cylinders put together is the volume of a single cylinder times the number of cylinders.

Displacement is calculated from the diameter of each cylinder and the distance each piston travels in the cylinder. Cubic centemeter's translates into liters.
Its not as tough as it looks.

(yea but he has a point you answered that question like 2 sec. after I postd it (I was impressed) no one else got that right but me, everyone's just kinda looking at me like (huh that girls not smart?) but the prof. was impressed, and I got extra credit yippie!

It's simple geometry... The volume of a cylinder is pi(r^2)h.

Yeah, I just never think abut geometery outside of school.:/

ivymike and 454casull formula's don't match????? for some reason I seriously doubt both of you knew that right of the top of your head...... whats up with the, look at me I think i'm better than you comments?

Okay slick, explain why you don't think they match. They look the same to me.

:rolleyes:
Why don't you try to understand the formulae first?
