Intake- piston rising, creates vacuum pulls fuel/air in from opening intake valve. As piston peaks, intake closes. Momentum forces piston back down, compressing the air/gas, making it quite volitile. This is the Compression stroke. At bottom, spark plug fires a spark that ignites fuel. Explosion forces piston back up. This is the Ignition stroke. As the piston reaches the top of this stroke and starts back down, exhaust valve opens, venting all burnt gasses-Exhaust stroke. Piston starts back up and intake stroke begins again. Piston operates on u-shaped portion of the camshaft, which has large gear on one end. That gear meshes with a smaller gear that operates a smaller cam. Smaller cam has lobes on it that open and shut the intake and exhaust valves. Of course if the gears are in the wrong spot, timing is off. There will be marks on both gears that indicate which teeth should mesh.
A mulch blade works well on a riding lawnmower.
four strok engines are like a scale down version of a car engine. They work the same way. unlike 2 stroke which can work any way E.G: upside down etc. 4 stroke engines need to positioned the right way so they can have a constant flow of oil. does this help?
The neighbor does more work because work is calculated by force multiplied by distance. Since the neighbor pushes the lawnmower four times farther, even though with half the force, their total work done is double compared to you.
Yes, if by "720 degrees of crankshaft rotation" you mean "two rotations" Here is a great animation of a four-stroke at work: http://www.animatedengines.com/otto.shtml
Work=Power x Time
I think yes
only if the lawnmower is red
The various parts of a stroke engine basically work in unison in converting the thermal energy to mechanical energy.

get the #1 up on compression stroke crank gear mark at 12 & cam gear at 6 this should work
A lawnmower converts potential energy into work
It is unlikely that the NB4L battery will work for your lawnmower but it really depends on your mower. Most of these batteries are used for small electronics like cell phones.
