How much is the expense of driving from Wandsworth to Brighton?

The expense of driving from Wandsworth to Brighton, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £9.1. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 144 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 £4.55 (£9.1 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £3.03 per passenger (£9.1 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £2.28 per passenger (£9.1 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 Wandsworth to Brighton, approximately 6.3 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 52.05 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 £9.1 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 trip with diesel fuel costs 6.3 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 3.15 £ (6.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 2.1 £ (6.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 1.58 £ (6.3/4) /p.

Diesel engines vs petrol engines:

  • Spark Ignition (Petrol Engines): In petrol engines, the ignition process begins with the introduction of an air-fuel mixture into the combustion chamber. A spark plug then generates a high-voltage electrical spark, which ignites the compressed air-fuel mixture, initiating combustion. This method is known as spark ignition, as the spark plug plays a crucial role in igniting the mixture.

  • Compression Ignition (Diesel Engines): Diesel engines operate on a different principle known as compression ignition. In these engines, air is compressed within the combustion chamber to a high temperature and pressure by the upward movement of the piston. This compression causes the diesel fuel, injected into the combustion chamber, to ignite spontaneously without the need for a spark plug. The high pressure and temperature created during compression cause the diesel fuel to combust, driving the power stroke of the engine.
