How much is the expense of driving from Rugby to Derby?

The expense of driving from Rugby to Derby, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £8.4. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 143 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £4.2 (£8.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £2.8 per passenger (£8.4 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £2.1 per passenger (£8.4 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 Rugby to Derby, approximately 5.9 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 48.45 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 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 £8.4 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.
 

 

The quality of fuel can indeed affect car fuel consumption. The main reasons are:

  1. Fuel Efficiency: High-quality fuel with the proper blend of additives and detergents can help maintain engine cleanliness and efficiency. Clean engines tend to burn fuel more efficiently, resulting in better mileage and lower fuel consumption.

  2. Engine Performance: Lower-quality fuels may contain impurities or inconsistent blends, which can lead to incomplete combustion or engine knocking. This can reduce engine efficiency and increase fuel consumption.

  3. Engine Deposits: Low-quality fuels may leave deposits on engine components such as fuel injectors, intake valves, and combustion chambers. These deposits can interfere with proper fuel delivery and combustion, leading to reduced fuel efficiency and increased consumption.

  4. Emissions: Poor-quality fuels may produce higher levels of harmful emissions, such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons. Inefficient combustion due to low-quality fuel can lead to increased emissions and may also affect engine performance and fuel consumption.

  5. Long-term Effects: Continued use of low-quality fuel can result in long-term engine damage and decreased fuel efficiency. Over time, engine deposits can accumulate and impair engine performance, leading to higher fuel consumption and repair costs.

In summary, using high-quality fuel that meets the manufacturer's specifications can help maintain engine efficiency, reduce emissions, and optimize fuel consumption.
