How much pressure is required to push up and down the piston of a 4cylinder internal combustion engine?

This depends on a lot of factors.
Mostly though it would be the compression ratio, which is basically the ratio of the cylinder volume open/closed, and the stroke which would be the length, as well as the bore which would be the width.
So how much surface it is hitting (bore) would vary the pressure needed, along with how far it has to go (stroke), and finally how much voume it's actually compressing.
The cylinders are generally rated for the pressure needed, so I would look up what a cylinder leak test for your particular vehicle should be at minimum, then if it's 100psi you have a high baseline to start with.

Assuming no change in temperature and pressure calculate the volume of O2 in liters required for the complete combustion of 14.9 L of butane C4H10?
Assuming no change in temperature and pressure, calculate the volume of O2 (in liters) required for the complete combustion of 14.9 L of butane (C4H10):
Is Mercury required for combustion?
No. Oxygen is required for combustion. Mercury is not involved.
Why boost pressure required?
boost pressr is required to increase the power or efficiency of engine. because due to boost pressr we get better fuel combustion.
Why cant you use carburetor in diesel engine?
Stoich for combustion of deisal is different and pressure required as well. Carbs only work with combustion point and air requirements of gas.
What type of fuel is required on a 2007 Toyota Sienna?
Petrol. Gasoline. Regular Unleaded. Call it what you will, it's just a normal internal combustion engine.
Is oxygen required in combustion?
No, oxygen is required for combustion to take place.
Were is the carburetor on an ATV?
Usually, on top of the motor, under the gas tank and in front of the air cleaner. This is the typical location due to the fact that the job of the carburetor is to mix fuel and air to create spontaneous combustion required for an internal combustion engine to operate.
What is an active gas in the air that is necessary for combustion?
Oxygen is the required gas that is necessary for combustion
What is the reactant compound in all combustion reactions?
For any combustion reaction O2 is required .
Why could a propane burner go out in high altitude?
As a guess, there would be a lower oxygen concentration or partial pressure at higher altitudes. Since oxygen is required for combustion.
What is required for combustion to occur?
oxygen
How a gear shifter works in an engine?
It doesn't ... it works with the transmission. It's required because the internal combustion engine works best at a fixed speed ... whereas you want the wheel speed to change frequently.
