A 2.0 - litre four - cylinder engine will have q capacity of 500cc in each of its cylinders. What would the size of this engine be if two more 500cc cylinders are added

The engine size would be 3.0 litre

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

Volume of engine = 2.0 litre

Number of cylinders = 4

Capacity of each cylinder = 500 cc

Therefore, when 2 more 500 cc cylinders are added, the size of the engine which is the total volume of combustion gases that can be handled by the cylinders of the engine becomes;

Engine size = Total volume of engine cylinders

New engine size = (4 + 2) * 500 cc = 3000 cc = 3.0 litre.
