Calculate the total carbon emissions, in metric tons of CO2, in the city over the course of a year.D 2
Question

The emissions data is presented in metric tons of CO2 per gadget produced. You collected the data of Petrol and Diesel cars per year emission in your city. Petrol cars emission was 0.62 metric tons of CO2 per car and Diesal Cars emission was 0.89 CO2 per car. Being a technician you need to work for the sustainability and would like to understand the environmental impact of Gasoline cars per year. Q 1.1As per the data collected you found that no of petrol cars in your city are 89500 and Diesal cars are 63200. Calculate the total carbon emissions, in metric tons of CO2, in the city over the course of a year.D 2
Solution
To calculate the total carbon emissions in the city over the course of a year, we need to multiply the number of petrol cars by the emissions per car and the number of diesel cars by the emissions per car.
Given that there are 89,500 petrol cars and the emissions per car is 0.62 metric tons of CO2, we can calculate the total emissions from petrol cars as follows:
Total emissions from petrol cars = Number of petrol cars * Emissions per car Total emissions from petrol cars = 89,500 * 0.62 Total emissions from petrol cars = 55,490 metric tons of CO2
Similarly, for diesel cars, we have 63,200 cars and emissions per car of 0.89 metric tons of CO2. Therefore, the total emissions from diesel cars can be calculated as:
Total emissions from diesel cars = Number of diesel cars * Emissions per car Total emissions from diesel cars = 63,200 * 0.89 Total emissions from diesel cars = 56,368 metric tons of CO2
To find the total carbon emissions in the city over the course of a year, we need to add the emissions from petrol cars and diesel cars:
Total carbon emissions = Total emissions from petrol cars + Total emissions from diesel cars Total carbon emissions = 55,490 + 56,368 Total carbon emissions = 111,858 metric tons of CO2
Therefore, the total carbon emissions in the city over the course of a year is 111,858 metric tons of CO2.
