Driving directions from Cambridge to Derby
What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Cambridge to Derby by car?
The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £18.8. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 143 pence per liter, and the car's fuel efficiency stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.
For individuals contemplating carpooling arrangements, the expenditure per traveler diminishes as the number of passengers increases. With two passengers, the cost per person amounts to £9.4 (£18.8/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £6.27 (£18.8/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £4.7 (£18.8/4).
To provide further elucidation on the calculation process, let us dissect how the final figure is derived:
Initially, the requisite fuel quantity is determined by dividing the distance traveled by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey spanning 108.68 miles, this computation entails multiplying 108.68 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and subsequently dividing by the car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 mpg, resulting in a requirement of 13.2 liters of fuel.
Subsequently, the fuel expenditure is computed by multiplying the amount of fuel required by the price per liter. Given a consumption of 13.2 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £18.8.
In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Cambridge to Derby stands at £18.8.

Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion creates more NOx and particulate matter than petrol combustion. This is due to diesel engine combustion and fuel composition. Modern diesel automobiles emit less due to particle filters and SCR systems.
Compared to diesel combustion, petrol combustion produces less nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Petrol contains less contaminants than diesel, thus petrol engines generate fewer particles. Due to combustion processes and engine design, petrol engines may release less nitrogen oxides.
While both diesel and petrol engines generate pollutants, diesel engines historically emitted more. Since pollution control technology have improved, current diesel and petrol vehicles can meet strict emissions criteria.
