Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A construction site has a diesel engine operating at 75% efficiency, with a theoretical fuel consumption rate of 0.15 liters per horsepower per hour. Calculate the effective fuel consumption per hour at 500 horsepower.

💡 Hint: Start with the theoretical value and adjust for efficiency.

Question 2

Using a gasoline engine rated at 400 horsepower with a consumption rate of 0.06 gallons per hp/hr, determine the cost of operation in an area where petrol costs $3 per gallon if the engine runs for 10 hours a day.

💡 Hint: Calculate total fuel use first, then multiply by the price per gallon.
