    Technically, we have no way of knowing that without seeing Figure 16-2.

    So the question should be reported for incomplete content. But I'm

    going to take a wild stab at it anyway.

    There's so much discussion of 'cylinder' and 'strokes' in the question,

    I have a hunch that it's talking about the guts of a 4-stroke internal

    combustion gasoline engine.

    If I'm right, then the temperature of the material within the cylinder is

    greatest right after the spark ignites it. At that instant, the material burns,

    explodes, expands violently, and drives the piston down with its stiff shot

    of pressure.

    This is obviously happening because of the great, sudden increase in

    temperature when the material ignites and explodes.

    It hits the piston with pressure, which leads directly to the power stroke.
