Hydrogen has a heating value near \( 120 \ \mathrm{MJ/kg} \) against kerosene's \( 43 \). The ratio is approximately

  • A.0.36
  • B.5.0
  • C.2.8
  • D.1.5

Answer: C

Dividing gives \( 120/43 \approx 2.8 \). Hydrogen's advantage per kilogram is large, but its very low density means the tank volume required is several times greater, which is a severe practical penalty on a slender vehicle.
