If you were to travel from Edinburgh to Cambridge, how much would it charge you?

A trip with petrol gasoline will cost you 61.7 pounds. According to the figure presented above, the price of petrol corresponds to 143 pence per litre, and the amount of petrol that the vehicle consumes is equivalent to 37.5 miles per gallon.
Through carpooling, the cost of this trip is 30.85 pounds for each of the two passengers.
When there are three people in the automobile, the cost of this trip is 20.57 pounds (61.7/3) for each individual passenger.
This trip will cost you 15.43 pounds for each of the four people who are travelling in the automobile.


The cost of fuel is equal to (356.01 miles / 37.5 miles per gallon) multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 61.7 pounds.

A more in-depth explanation of the result is as follows:

Fuel usage is miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by the distance travelled by the vehicle.Consumption is 356.01 miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by 37.5 miles per gallon, which equals 43.2 litres

It takes 43.2 litres of fuel.

The cost of fuel is equal to the amount of fuel required multiplied by the price per litre, which is 43.2 litres multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 61.7 pounds.

The cost of fuel from Edinburgh to Cambridge is 61.7 pounds.
 

 

One thing that can affect car fuel consumption is the use of air conditioning (AC) for the following reasons:

  1. Engine Load: When the AC is turned on, the compressor in the car's engine needs to work harder to cool and circulate the air. This extra workload can increase the engine's fuel consumption, especially during city driving or when the car is idling.

  2. Drag Effect: Running the AC can also increase aerodynamic drag, particularly at higher speeds. This means the engine needs to work harder to maintain speed, resulting in higher fuel consumption.

  3. Accessory Load: In addition to the AC compressor, other electrical components such as the blower fan and condenser fan also draw power from the engine when the AC is running. This increases the overall electrical load on the engine, leading to higher fuel consumption.

  4. Driving Conditions: The impact of AC on fuel consumption can vary depending on driving conditions. For example, using the AC while driving at lower speeds or in stop-and-go traffic may have a more significant effect on fuel consumption compared to highway driving.

  5. Efficiency Settings: Some cars come equipped with features like "Eco" mode or variable AC compressor speeds, which can help reduce the impact of AC on fuel consumption. Using these features can help optimize fuel efficiency while still keeping the cabin cool.

Overall, while using the AC can increase fuel consumption to some extent, it's often a necessary trade-off for comfort, especially during hot weather. However, minimizing AC usage when possible, such as using the car's ventilation system or rolling down windows at lower speeds, can help mitigate its impact on fuel consumption.
