What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Exeter to Oldham by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £44.4. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 144 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 £22.2 (£44.4/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £14.8 (£44.4/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £11.1 (£44.4/4).

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 254.09 miles, this computation entails multiplying 254.09 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 30.8 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 30.8 liters of fuel at a rate of 144 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £44.4.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Exeter to Oldham stands at £44.4.

Diesel cost from Exeter to Oldham.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 30.8 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 15.4 £ (30.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 10.27 £ (30.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.7 £ (30.8/4) /p.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel is known for its higher energy density compared to petrol. This means that diesel contains more energy per volume than petrol. As a result, diesel engines can achieve better fuel efficiency and typically provide greater mileage per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol engines.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol contains less energy per volume than diesel. While petrol engines are still efficient, they tend to have slightly lower fuel efficiency and may offer shorter driving ranges compared to diesel engines due to this difference in energy density.
