How do you calculate the force needed to push against a piston based on the mass of the vehicle, the rpm of the crankshaft, radius of crankshaft (same distance as the center of the crankshaft to the attachment point of the connecting rod and the crankshaft), and the length of connecting rod. Although I am given these measurements, not all of them have to be used. Basically, I need to know how to calculate the piston force based on crankshaft measurements. I request that only people who are qualified or 100 percent sure about the solution answer this question. Also, it would be great if you could make up some hypothetical values in order to demonstrate the calculation process. Thanks!
