How much does it cost to travel from Inverness to Blackwood by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £93.9. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £46.95 (£93.9/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £31.3 per person (£93.9/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £23.48 per person (£93.9/4).

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 541.45 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 541.45 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 65.6 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 65.6 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £93.9.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Inverness to Blackwood amounts to £93.9.

 

Tire air pressure affects automotive fuel economy because:

Rolling Resistance: Well-inflated tires demand less energy to move. This minimizes engine workload and boosts fuel efficiency. However, underinflated tires increase rolling resistance, making the engine work harder and using more petrololine.

Tires filled to the manufacturer's recommended pressure provide best performance and fuel efficiency. Any tire pressure below or above this suggested range can reduce fuel efficiency.

Uneven tire wear increases rolling resistance and fuel consumption. Regularly checking and maintaining tire pressure helps save tire wear and fuel use.

Properly inflated tires improve handling and stability, especially when cornering and braking. Smoother driving reduces rapid acceleration and braking, improving fuel efficiency.

Environmental Impact: Proper tire pressure improves fuel efficiency, lowers tire wear, and extends tire life. This reduces the environmental impact of tire disposal and manufacture, improving sustainability.

Fuel efficiency, vehicle performance, and safety depend on optimum tire air pressure. Regularly checking and adjusting tire pressure according to manufacturer guidelines saves fuel and reduces environmental impact.
