The number of pistons in an engine typically corresponds to the number of cylinders it has, as each cylinder contains one piston. Common configurations include 4-cylinder, 6-cylinder, and 8-cylinder engines, among others. However, some specialized engines, like those in certain performance or industrial vehicles, may have more or fewer cylinders and thus pistons.
The reciprocating motion of the pistons is converted into rotary motion which is connected to a shaft connected to an electrical generator .
It's not the amount of cylinders. Formula 1 cars have 8 and they rev to 10,000prms. It's about a shorter stroke and less reciprocating mass. Generally, engines in cars with 4 cylinders have a displacement under 3 liters. This means smaller pistons, rods, crankshaft and/or stroke. Big American muscle has V8's with big displacement, let's say 5 liters or bigger. So they have a longer stroke, bigger pistons, bigger rods and a bigger crank. So that's basically why.

There are ( 8 PISTONS ) in a V8 engine
There are 16 pistons in a Buggati because its 2 V8 engines combined.
An engine has one piston for each cylinder, so a V8 will have eight pistons.An engine has one piston for each cylinder, so a V8 will have eight pistons.
Depends on how what type of engine it has. 4-cylinder = 4 pistons (inline) V6 = 6 pistons (arranged in a V-shape, thus the name V) V8 = 8 pistons
Nope
In a Mitsubishi V8 engine, the pistons are positioned in two banks of four cylinders each, arranged in a V configuration. This design allows for a compact engine layout, with the banks typically set at a 90-degree angle to each other. The pistons move up and down in their respective cylinders, converting the energy from combustion into mechanical power to drive the vehicle. This configuration is common in many V8 engines, providing a balance of power and smooth operation.
A typical V8 Supercar costs above $600,000
A V8 engine has one crankshaft. This single crankshaft is designed to convert the linear motion of the pistons into rotational motion, driving the vehicle's wheels. The layout of the V8 engine allows for eight cylinders to work efficiently, all connected to that one crankshaft.
The V8 waste more gas because it has two more pistons to use more plus V6 are more reliable
Yes
A V8? That's 8 pistons my friend. I don't think so.Addendum:I've seen some specially modified lawnmowers with small block V8's. Not certain just how driveable they are.
Rotary engines do not have pistons.
