Air scavenging of the cylinder shown in the illustration begins between figures_______________. Illustration MO-0025

AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) 3 and 4.
The air scavenging of the cylinder shown in the illustration begins between figures 3 and 4. This is because the piston is moving downwards in figure 3, drawing in a fresh air charge, and then in figure 4 the piston is moving upwards, expelling the exhaust gases and allowing fresh air to enter the cylinder.
The other answer choices are incorrect because:
A) Air scavenging does not begin between figures 2 and 3, as the piston is still moving downwards in figure 2.
C) Air scavenging does not begin between figures 4 and 5, as the piston is already in the upward stroke in figure 4.
D) Air scavenging does not begin between figures 5 and 6, as the piston is already in the downward stroke in figure 5.
