In the case of a single cylinder engine it would require a LARGE flywheel, so that rotary momentum is maintained. In the case of a multi-cylinder engine there are multiple firings of individual cylinders in 360 degrees of crankshaft rotation. Each cylinder as it fires helps the crankshaft maintain rotary momentum, thus a lighter flywheel is required.

What makes the piston moves?
The piston moves in an engine due to the pressure created by the combustion of fuel. As the fuel ignites, it creates a force that pushes the piston down the cylinder, which converts chemical energy into mechanical energy.
Piston in an engine is what class of lever?
A piston in an engine functions as a class 1 lever. The piston moves up and down inside the cylinder, converting the pressure from the combustion process into mechanical energy that drives the engine. The force from the expanding gases acts on the piston (effort), which then creates a turning effect on the crankshaft (load).
How can you use the word piston in a sentence?
The engine's piston moves up and down within the cylinder to help generate power.
In an internal combustion engine each up or down movement of a piston is called a what?
a revolution i believe, although that may be for the whole crankshaft not each piston a revolution i believe, although that may be for the whole crankshaft not each piston
How do you use the word piston in a sentence?
The piston moves up and down inside the engine cylinder.
What you mean by Stroke in internal-combustion?
A stroke in an internal combustion engine is when a piston moves up or down.
Within an internal combustion engine the can shape component that moves upand down the cylinder is the main moving part in the engine is?
Piston
Within an internal combustion engine the can shaped component that moves up and down the cylinder and is the main moving part in the engine is the?
Piston.

How fuel is processed in the engine in order to make the car operate?
A piston moves up and down inside the combustion chamber. In a four stroke engine when the piston is moving down it is drawing air and fuel into the combustion chamber. on its way back up it compresses the fuel then when it hits top dead center the spark plug sparks and causes an explosion which pushes the piston down, repeating the cycle.
What is meant by the term internal combustion engine?
An internal combustion engine is where the pistons open up, gas goes in them and then they close. The pressure causes an explosive reaction from the gas. That reaction moves the piston up and down. The piston is connected to the transmission and drive train. The transmission is connected to the wheels and when the piston moves the transmission moves and so on. When the piston opens up again, the old gas leaves through the exhaust pipe and new gas goes into the piston repeating the cycle over and over again.
What is piston and its function?
piston is a plunger that moves ups and down in the engine block.the function of the piston is to compress air mixtures in the engine block
Which stroke forces the piston downward in the four stoke process of an internal combustion engine?
The power stroke. The order is intake, compression, power and exaust. The piston moves down on intake and power but is only forced down on the power stroke
