If L1 = 2.000 inches, L2 = 3.000 Inches, L3 = 2.250 inches, D1 = 1.500 Inches, D2 =1.875 Inches, D3 = 2.875 inches, D5 = .375 inches, D4 = 4.500 inches will a S10 fit this seal chamber? Note D dimensions are shown as a radius, but are expressed as diameters.
- A.
  
  Yes
- B.
  
  No
Correct Answer
A. Yes

Explanation
The S10 will fit this seal chamber because the diameter of the seal chamber (D4) is 4.500 inches, which is greater than the sum of the diameters of the seal (D1, D2, D3, D5) which is 1.500 inches + 1.875 inches + 2.875 inches + 0.375 inches = 6.625 inches. Therefore, the seal will fit comfortably within the seal chamber.
