Total Length of Piston Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Total Length of Piston?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
L=h1+hR+ls
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
∴ L=30mm+44mm+50mm
Next Step Convert Units
∴ L=0.03m+0.044m+0.05m
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
∴ L=0.03+0.044+0.05
Next Step Evaluate
∴L=0.124m
LAST Step Convert to Output's Unit
∴L=124mm
