Doesn't the driver ( and any passengers ) in the car emit CO2 as well, so you are not comparing like with like.You must compare CO2 from Car, driver and passengers with CO2 emitted by cyclist to be more accurate.You will need to divide the CO2 for car driver and passenger by number of occupants of car to get CO2 per person per journey
An average car produces about 7700 kg of co2 a year.
What is the distance used in a CO2 car competition What is the distance used in a CO2 car competition
The average co2 emission per year for a car in the USA. is 11,450 pounds
The average speed of a 12 inch CO2 Car is 168.18 miles per hour according to many experiments by many scientists. The 918 Spider car reach a top speed of198 MPH
None its only used when the car is moving
65 1/2 Feet
how much did an average car cost in 1996?
First Answer:Approximately 7700 kg of Co2 (carbon dioxide) per year.Second Answer:Gasoline weighs about 6.3 pounds per gallon. Each gallon of fuel results in 20 pounds of CO2, because carbon from the fuel combines with oxygen in the air. C12 + O16 + O16 = CO2.I fill my car once about once a week. Some people drive a lot more, and others a lot less, but I figure my car is probably close to average. The tank holds 15 gallons, so that is 15 x 20 = 300 pounds of CO2 per week. I drive about 50 weeks out of the year, so 50 * 300 = 15,000 pounds of CO2. That is about 7.5 tons per vehicle per year, which agrees well with the 7.7 metric tonnes mentioned above.Humans emit a little over 30 billion tons of CO2 per year altogether. Americans burn 375 million gallons of gas a day, emitting about 1.4 billion tons of CO2 per year. If we divide that by 7.5 we get 182 million vehicles, pretty close to one car for every two Americans. The math checks out reasonably well.
the co2
If you are referring to CO2, it depends on what make/model/engine.
yes as they do not give out carbon dioxide (co2) witch is contributing to the ice caps meltingYour answer is incomplete and barely right.Electric autos do not produce CO2 BUT to charge the battery CO2 is produced at the power generating plant!Every KwH used by an electric car generated on average about 600g of CO2.600g of CO2 is a worldwide average of CO2 emissions/ KwH.
