Both valves are closed during the power stroke.

While the fuel is burning in the cylinder, you want
all the force of the expanding gases to push the
piston down ... you don't want any of the gases
or their pressure escaping. 

If either of the valves was open, even just a crack,
then part of the gases would go blooey out the valve,
and some pressure would be lost that's supposed to be
pushing the piston.

Answer:

Air resistance slows down the ball

In space, there would be no air resistance

Explanation:

When an object moves through the air, there is a force acting in the opposite direction to the motion of the ball: this force is called air resistance.

Air resistance is due to the friction between the molecules of air and the molecules at the surface of the object - because of this frictional force, the object is slows down in its motion and loses some energy (which is converted into thermal energy of the surrounding air).

There is also the force of gravity (downward) that acts on the ball: however, this force does not slows down the ball in its motion, instead it accelerates it towards the ground.

In space, however, there is no air and no gravity. This means that there are no forces acting on the ball: therefore, the ball will not be slowed down, and therefore will continue its motion forever, at constant velocity, according to Newton's first law:

<em>An object at rest (or in motion) will stay at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) when the net external force acting on it is zero</em>

The image represents a sound wave as it goes through several changes. Describe how the waves changes. where does it get louder?
Ksju [112]

Answer:

At point A. it gets kinda loud then at point B. it gets very loud than at point C. it gets quieter than at point D. it gets more silent.

Explanation:

Because you can tell when the waves get large it gets louder and then when the waves get more far apart then it get more quiet. Hope this helped!
