With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £0.87 per passenger (£2.6 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £0.65 per passenger (£2.6 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from East Kilbride to Renfrew, approximately 1.8 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 14.74 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.

Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £2.6 for the trip.

Diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of emissions:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion generally produces higher levels of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter compared to petrol combustion. This is due to the combustion characteristics of diesel engines, as well as the composition of diesel fuel. However, advancements in diesel engine technology, such as particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems, have significantly reduced emissions from modern diesel vehicles.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol combustion typically produces lower levels of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter compared to diesel combustion. Petrol engines emit fewer particulates because petrol itself contains fewer impurities compared to diesel. Additionally, petrol engines may emit lower levels of nitrogen oxides due to differences in combustion processes and engine design.
