What's the expense of traveling from Merthyr Tydfil to Coatbridge by car?

If you're using petrol, you're looking at an expense of 66.3 quid. Now, how do we get to that number? Let's break it down.

First off, we need to consider the price of petrol. In this calculation, it's set at 143 pence per liter. Then, we need to know how thirsty your car is. The fuel consumption rate for this ride is 37.5 miles per gallon.

Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets divvied up. For two people sharing the ride, it's gonna be 33.15 quid each (£66.3 divided by 2). If you've got three folks in the car, the cost per person comes down to about 22.1 quid (£66.3 divided by 3). And if it's a full house with four passengers, each person chips in 16.58 quid (£66.3 divided by 4).

Let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the calculations. To figure out how much fuel you need for the trip, it's all about distance and fuel efficiency. The distance between Merthyr Tydfil and Coatbridge is about 382.43 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 46.4 liters of petrol. We got that number by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters 'cause that's what we use here.

Once we know how much fuel we need, we can calculate the total cost. Multiply the amount of fuel (46.4 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), and you get 66.3 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Merthyr Tydfil to Coatbridge: 66.3 pounds.

For 2 passengers: 20.95 £ (41.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 13.97 £ (41.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 10.48 £ (41.9/4) /p.

Diesel fuel has more torque at lower RPM than petrol fuel. 

Diesel Fuel: Diesel engines create higher torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Due to diesel and petrol engine design variances in combustion processes and fuel characteristics, this occurs. Diesel engines create significant torque at low RPMs due to compression ignition, when the air-fuel mixture spontaneously ignites under high pressure and temperature. Diesel cars can deliver enough of torque at low engine speeds, making them ideal for towing and transporting heavy objects. 
Compared to diesel engines, petrol engines provide less torque at lower RPMs. Petrol engines can produce torque, but they need greater engine speeds. A spark plug ignites the air-fuel mixture in petrol engines, which may not provide as much torque at lower engine speeds as compression ignition in diesel engines. Modern petrol automobiles have enhanced torque delivery across a wider RPM range because to turbocharging and variable valve timing. 
Overall, diesel engines have more torque at lower RPMs than petrol engines due to their combustion processes and engine designs. Diesel cars excel for high-pull and low-speed applications due to this trait.
