What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Perth to Plymouth by car?
The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £92.3. 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 £46.15 (£92.3/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £30.77 (£92.3/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £23.08 (£92.3/4).
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 532.73 miles, this computation entails multiplying 532.73 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 64.6 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 64.6 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £92.3.
In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Perth to Plymouth stands at £92.3.
Diesel cost from Perth to Plymouth.
The trip with diesel fuel costs 58.3 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 29.15 £ (58.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 19.43 £ (58.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 14.58 £ (58.3/4) /p.
One key factor contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars is their higher thermal efficiency. Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines, allowing them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. This increased efficiency means diesel vehicles can travel farther on the same amount of fuel compared to petrol vehicles, resulting in lower fuel consumption overall.
