How much is the expense of driving from North West Leicestershire to Coatbridge?
The expense of driving from North West Leicestershire to Coatbridge, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £49.4. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 143 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £24.7 (£49.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £16.47 per passenger (£49.4 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £12.35 per passenger (£49.4 divided by 4).
To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from North West Leicestershire to Coatbridge, approximately 34.6 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 285.07 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.
Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £49.4 for the trip. This breakdown illustrates the impact of various factors, such as fuel price and consumption rate, on the overall cost of the journey, providing insights for individuals planning similar trips and requiring budget estimates.

Diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of fuel efficiency:
-
Diesel Fuel: Diesel engines are generally more fuel-efficient than petrol engines. This is primarily due to the higher energy density of diesel fuel and the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or per gallon compared to petrol, allowing diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which further improves their thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles typically achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.
-
Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol engines are generally less fuel-efficient than diesel engines. While petrol is still an efficient fuel for internal combustion engines, it typically has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol engines may require more fuel to achieve the same level of performance as diesel engines. However, advancements in petrol engine technology, such as turbocharging and direct injection, have improved fuel efficiency in recent years, narrowing the gap between petrol and diesel vehicles.
