What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Maidstone to North Devon by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £39.3. 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 £19.65 (£39.3/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £13.1 (£39.3/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £9.83 (£39.3/4).

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 226.43 miles, this computation entails multiplying 226.43 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 27.4 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 27.4 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £39.3.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Maidstone to North Devon stands at £39.3.

Diesel cost from Maidstone to North Devon.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 24.8 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 12.4 £ (24.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 8.27 £ (24.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 6.2 £ (24.8/4) /p.

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

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion generally results in higher emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter compared to petrol combustion. This is primarily due to the combustion characteristics of diesel engines and the composition of diesel fuel. However, modern diesel vehicles incorporate advanced emission control technologies such as particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to mitigate these emissions effectively.

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

In summary, while both diesel and petrol engines emit pollutants, diesel engines historically produced higher emissions. Nevertheless, advancements in emission control technologies have enabled both diesel and petrol vehicles to meet strict emissions standards.
