What's the expense of traveling from Bedford to North Somerset by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £23.8. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £11.9 (£23.8/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £7.93 (£23.8/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £5.95 (£23.8/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 137.33 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 137.33 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 16.6 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 16.6 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £23.8.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Bedford to North Somerset amounts to £23.8.

 

Tire air pressure affects automotive fuel economy because:

Rolling Resistance: Well-inflated tires demand less energy to move. This minimizes engine workload and boosts fuel efficiency. However, underinflated tires increase rolling resistance, making the engine work harder and using more petrololine.

Tires filled to the manufacturer's recommended pressure provide best performance and fuel efficiency. Any tire pressure below or above this suggested range can reduce fuel efficiency.

Uneven tire wear increases rolling resistance and fuel consumption. Regularly checking and maintaining tire pressure helps save tire wear and fuel use.

Properly inflated tires improve handling and stability, especially when cornering and braking. Smoother driving reduces rapid acceleration and braking, improving fuel efficiency.

Environmental Impact: Proper tire pressure improves fuel efficiency, lowers tire wear, and extends tire life. This reduces the environmental impact of tire disposal and manufacture, improving sustainability.

Fuel efficiency, vehicle performance, and safety depend on optimum tire air pressure. Regularly checking and adjusting tire pressure according to manufacturer guidelines saves fuel and reduces environmental impact.
