What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Swansea to Sheffield by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £38.6. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 144 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 £19.3 (£38.6/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £12.87 (£38.6/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £9.65 (£38.6/4).

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 221.37 miles, this computation entails multiplying 221.37 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 26.8 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 26.8 liters of fuel at a rate of 144 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £38.6.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Swansea to Sheffield stands at £38.6.

Diesel cost from Swansea to Sheffield.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 26.8 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 13.4 £ (26.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 8.93 £ (26.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 6.7 £ (26.8/4) /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.
