1.) As Becky was driving “Old Betsy,” the family station wagon, the engine finally quit being
worn out after 171,000 miles. It can be assumed that the average speed over its lifetime
was 40 mph at an engine speed of 1700 RPM. The engine is a 5 liter V8 operating on a
four-stroke cycle.
Calculate: a.) how many revolutions has the engine experienced?
b.) How many spark plug firings have occurred in the entire engine?
c.) How many intake strokes have occurred in one cylinder?
