Answer
Correct Answer: 150 bar
Explanation
Concept/ApproachTraditional mechanically-controlled DI diesels commonly use injection pressures in the ~150–250 bar range. Modern common-rail systems can exceed 1000 bar, but for textbook basics, ≈150 bar is the representative value among the given choices.
Elimination10 bar and 100 bar are too low; 500 bar is high for older conventional systems.
Final Answer150 bar.
