What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Liverpool to Canterbury by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £48.1. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 143 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 £24.05 (£48.1/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £16.03 (£48.1/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £12.03 (£48.1/4).

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 277.23 miles, this computation entails multiplying 277.23 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 33.6 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 33.6 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £48.1.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Liverpool to Canterbury stands at £48.1.

Diesel cost from Liverpool to Canterbury.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 30.4 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 15.2 £ (30.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 10.13 £ (30.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.6 £ (30.4/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and petrol fuel in terms of greater torque at lower RPM:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel engines typically produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic is due to the inherent design differences between diesel and petrol engines, particularly in their combustion processes and fuel properties. Diesel engines operate on compression ignition, where the air-fuel mixture ignites spontaneously under high pressure and temperature, allowing them to generate high torque even at low RPMs. This characteristic makes diesel vehicles well-suited for tasks requiring high pulling power, such as towing or hauling heavy loads, as they can deliver ample torque at low engine speeds.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol engines generally produce less torque at lower RPMs compared to diesel engines. While petrol engines can also deliver torque, they often require higher engine speeds to reach their maximum torque output. Petrol engines rely on spark ignition, where the air-fuel mixture is ignited by a spark plug, and this combustion process may not generate as much torque at lower engine speeds as compression ignition in diesel engines. However, advancements in petrol engine technology, such as turbocharging and variable valve timing, have improved torque delivery across a broader RPM range in modern petrol vehicles.
