How much is the expense of driving from Rhyl to Cardiff?

The expense of driving from Rhyl to Cardiff using petrol amounts to £31. This computation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 miles per gallon. For those considering carpooling arrangements, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, the cost per person is £15.5 (£31 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £10.33 per person (£31 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £7.75 per person (£31 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, approximately 21.7 liters of fuel would be required. Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £31 for the trip from Rhyl to Cardiff.

For 4 passengers: 4.9 £ (19.6/4) /p.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel typically has a higher energy density compared to petrol. This means that diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or per gallon than petrol. As a result, diesel engines can extract more energy from each unit of fuel compared to petrol engines, leading to better fuel efficiency and longer driving ranges for diesel vehicles.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. While petrol is still an efficient fuel for internal combustion engines, it generally contains less energy per liter or per gallon compared to diesel fuel. This difference in energy density contributes to the differences in fuel efficiency and driving range between petrol and diesel vehicles.
