How much is the expense of driving from Barrow-in-Furness to Wishaw?

The expense of driving from Barrow-in-Furness to Wishaw using petrol amounts to £26.6.

For those considering carpooling arrangements, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, the cost per person is £13.3 (£26.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £8.87 per person (£26.6 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £6.65 per person (£26.6 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, approximately 18.6 liters of fuel would be required. Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £26.6 for the trip from Barrow-in-Furness to Wishaw.
 

 

Road conditions affect fuel usage for the following reasons:

Surface Roughness: Potholes, fissures, and uneven pavement increase rolling resistance. This makes the tires work harder to maintain speed, increasing fuel consumption.

Tire-road surface friction increases with poor road conditions. Friction causes drag, which makes the engine work harder. Therefore, fuel usage might rise, especially at high speeds.

Traffic Congestion: Heavy traffic causes stops and idling in traffic queues. Constant acceleration and deceleration might increase fuel consumption compared to open roadways.

Elevation Changes: Steep inclines or falls can effect fuel usage, especially for smaller engines. Uphill climbing takes more engine power and petrololine, whereas descending downhill may require more braking and fuel to regulate.

Rain, snow, and ice can impair road traction and vehicle stability. Adjusting speed and driving behavior can affect fuel consumption.

Good pavement and smooth roads use less fuel than rough or badly maintained roads. Smooth roads reduce rolling resistance and improve vehicle efficiency.

Road conditions greatly affect fuel use, so drivers' fuel economy may vary.
