The total displacement will be calculated using Pythagoras theorem. The distance traveled will form the two sides of the triangle. Hence we have to calculate the hypotenuse side using the formula Square root of (2 power 2 + 1 power 2)=Square root(5)=2.23

What size engines are big blocks?

In Chevy and GMC vehicles, the "big block" refers to a larger displacement engine. These engines can include the 396ci, 409ci, 427ci, 454ci, 502ci etc... Simply a larger dispacement does not always define an engine as being a big block. In some cases GM has made engines with 400ci of displacement which are considered small blocks.

How can you determine if a 1986 Chevrolet 305ci is a big block or small block?

It's based on displacement, yours is 305 cubic inch which is a small block, big blocks are usually up above 400 or so You're right, a 305 is a smallblock, but the difference between bigblocks (bb) and smallblocks (sb) is NOT entirely based on displacement. Although it would seem that increasing displacement at a certain point draws the line between a sb and a bb, this is not the case; i.e a gm 396 cui is a bb whereas the 400 cui is a sb. The reason for this is that the difference is based on the (physical) size of the block itself,-as the manufacturer in this case traditionally operates with two different sized v8 blocks, one was named smallblock, the other bigblock. So, in the end the difference here is something one has to look up in a manual and then remember for future reference.


How many city blocks would you have to walk back if you walked 7 blocks east then 10 blocks north then finishing by walking 8 blocks west?

To complete the circle you would have to walk 10 blocks south and 1 block east to return to your starting point, 11 blocks.
