How much does it cost to travel from Cambridge to Renfrew by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £63.6. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £31.8 (£63.6/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £21.2 per person (£63.6/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £15.9 per person (£63.6/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 366.82 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 366.82 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of mpg, resulting in 44.5 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 44.5 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £63.6.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Cambridge to Renfrew amounts to £63.6.

 

The state of the road might impact fuel usage due to many factors.

Surface roughness refers to the unevenness of road surfaces, which can be caused by potholes, fractures, or uneven pavement. This unevenness can lead to an increase in rolling resistance. Consequently, the tires must exert more effort to sustain velocity, resulting in increased fuel consumption.

Friction: The presence of inadequate road conditions can augment the level of friction between the tires and the road surface. The friction between surfaces generates drag, necessitating the engine to exert more effort to overcome it. Consequently, the use of fuel might escalate, particularly when driving at higher velocities.

Traffic congestion refers to the situation where roads experience a high volume of vehicles, resulting in frequent halts, starts, and prolonged waiting in traffic lines. The consistent acceleration and deceleration can result in higher fuel usage when compared to driving on uncongested, unrestricted roadways.

Changes in elevation can have an impact on fuel usage, particularly for vehicles equipped with less powerful engines, when encountering roads with steep inclines or drops. Ascending a slope necessitates greater engine power and consequently more fuel consumption, but descending a decline may necessitate additional braking and fuel usage to maintain control.

Weather Conditions: Inclement weather conditions, including precipitation such as rain, snow, or ice, can have a detrimental impact on road grip and the stability of vehicles. Motorists may be required to modify their velocity and driving conduct, which can have an effect on fuel usage.

Surface Quality: Smooth road surfaces with high-quality pavement often lead to decreased fuel consumption in comparison to rough or inadequately maintained roads. The reason for this is that smooth roads decrease rolling resistance, hence enabling more efficient vehicle performance.

In general, the quality of roads has a substantial impact on petrololine consumption, and drivers may encounter differences in fuel economy based on the state of the roads they are traveling on.
