A piston cylinder process actually includes two processes. The gas inside the piston undergoes both the constant pressure process and the contant volume process.
The piston in the cylinder acts as a pump and the answer depends on the volume of the chamber into which the substance is compressed.
It is volume of a cylinder = pi*radius2*height or length
The answer is Compression Ratio. You should try reading the Study Unit it really helps!
That can be calculated for individual cylinders by the formula :- Pi R (2) x length of piston stroke.
cubic centimeter displacement (the volume that the piston displaces in the cylinder)
The difference between a piston and a plunger may be understood if you observe what forms the seal that precludes the fluid from passing either the Plunger or Piston. The 'piston' is a steel block equipped with elastomers that makes wall contact with the cylinder wall. As it moves inside the cylinder it wipes the wall and displaces the entire content of the cylinder. In this case the seals form part of the piston. The 'plunger' is a steel block that moves through a hole that is equipped with elastomer seals. The plunger displaces a portion of the cylinder contents, i.e., the volume of the plunger that enters the cylinder. The plunger does not wipe the walls of the cylinder. The seals, in case, are a part of the cylinder block. Umair Aslam Mechanical Engineer PARCO, Pakistan
"litre" refers to the volume that a piston displaces during its travel in the cylinder. example: an 8.0 Litre V8 has 8 pistons that each displace one litre of volume when they move thru their cycle.

increases,the volume increases
It is the volume of the cylinder/combustion chamber/head gasket/piston volume(dish/dome) when the piston is at the bottom of the stroke divided by the volume when it is at the top of the stroke.
measure the volume of liquid that the object displaces
The piston in the cylinder acts as a pump and the answer depends on the volume of the chamber into which the substance is compressed.
5ml (i.e. 5 cubic centimetres)
The volume between the engine head and piston when the piston is in the head dead center piston R - is expressed in cubic inches
The volume occupied by the cylinder when the piston is at top dead centre is called clearence valume.
2500 Cubic Centimeters... It's the volume of a cylinder or cylinders between the bottom stroke and top stroke of the piston or pistons.
