The given graph shows the nitrogen oxide emissions produced by four vehicles. Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
The line graph illustrates the
emission
of nitrogen oxide in grams per kilometre by various types of vehicles such
as lorries, buses, and petrol or diesel cars
over the speed of 10 to 130 kilometres per hour.
Overall
, the data are fluctuating a little for the cars
but remained fairly constant for the rest.
Firstly
, lorries and buses stayed in a similar status across the speed. Buses had the lowest emission
of all at 7g/km
at 10kph and then
at 5g/km
at 130kph. This
was followed by lorries at just above 10g/km
at the beginning and around 12g/km
at the end
.
On the contrary
, diesel cars
emit the highest at 40 g
/km
at 10 kph
, while
a petrol car emits about 33g/km
at the same speed. The numbers then
decrease rapidly to around 25g/km
for diesel cars
at 60kph before sharply rising to the highest emission
at 42g/km
at 130kph. The same goes for petrol cars
as the emission
declined to about 16g/km
at 90kph but then
rose to around 25g/km
at 130kph.Submitted by Mazam on
