If available, based on your measurements of bore (cylinder diameter), stroke (TDC to BDC), and clearance volume, CV, what is the displacement,D, of the lawnmower engine? (Use experimental numbers if available; otherwise, use these numbers: stroke = 0.100 m, bore = 0.050 m, and CV = 2.5 × 10^-5 m³.)

Refer to a 3.5 horsepower lawn mower engine at a nominal speed of 2.50 × 10³ RPM. A typical lawn mower engine, and the inside of its cylinder head, is shown below. Note: the depression in the cylinder head is the clearance for the engine’s valves. If such an engine is available to you in class, you can disassemble it and measure the bore, stroke, and clearance volume, CV, of the engine.
