What is the power output of the engine at its rated speed


A BMW 3 series coupe (330Ci) is powered by a 3.0 L in-line 6 cylinder spark-ignition engine. it has a bore of 89.6mm, a stroke of 84mm, and a compression ratio of 10.2:1. The maximum perssure reached in the engine is 90 atm. Given that gasoline has an energy content of 44MJ/kg, what is the minimum amount of fuel that must be consumed per piston each cycle? What is the power output (in kW and hp) of the engine at its rated speed of 5900 RPM? what is the maximum possible efficiency of this engine? What is the minimum amount of fuel (in liters) consumed per 100 kilometers driven (liters-per-100km is commonly used now in place of old miles-per-galon standard), if the car is driving at 100km/h in high gear with the engine operating at 2000rpm (hint: do you need to consider air resistance?)? You will need to look up the density of gasoline. Sketch the cycle on a p-v diagram.
