🔍 Key Concepts

• Top dead center (TDC) position of a piston in a reciprocating engine • Geometric relationship between the crank, connecting rod, and cylinder at TDC • How the connecting rod aligns when the piston is at the extreme end of its stroke

💭 Think About

• Visualize a simple piston-crank mechanism at TDC: where is the piston, and how is the connecting rod lined up? • Ask yourself: at TDC, is the connecting rod usually at an angle or as straight as possible relative to the piston motion? • Which of the choices describes a fixed reference line in the engine that the connecting rod would logically line up with when the piston is at the very top of its stroke?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on what top dead center means: piston at the very top of its travel • Identify which option refers to a straight geometric reference line instead of a force or effect (like inertia or angularity) • Eliminate choices that describe dynamic effects rather than physical alignment or geometry at TDC
