It is the area of the ends of the cylinders which is Pi x r^2 so we have two of those and the total is 2 Pi r2 now add to the the area of the sides. This is 2x Pi x r x h so the total surface area is: 2 Pi r2 +2Pi x r h

External diameter minus internal diameter will get you the difference and then you have to divide by two to get the wall thickness. (as the difference in diameter accounts for both sides of the cylinder)
it has 4 sides but the basic shapes tend to be a square, rectangle and kite
3 - 4 per cylinder.
You can take any sized cylinder and pump it up to 4 psig. The bigger the cylinder, the more air it will take to increase the pressure to that 4 pounds-force per square inch. Think it through and the idea will lock in.
Air cylinder or air rams consists of a tube with a sealed base, a piston attached to a rod and a gland to seal the tube and rod where the rod exits the barrel. This assembly is called the cylinder or ram. The ram is ported in the top and bottom to allow pressurized air to enter and exit the cylinder. This moves the piston which is attached to the rod and created the movement. Cylinders are usually stationary at one end and the rod is attached to a moving part. This is called a double-acting cylinder because pressurized air can be let into both sides of the cylinder to create movement. A single-acting cylinder relies on gravity to extend or retract it as it is only ported on either the top or bottom side of the cylinder.
