The main useful energy change in a petrol engine is the conversion of chemical energy from fuel into mechanical energy. During combustion, the chemical energy stored in petrol is transformed into heat energy, which then expands gases that drive the pistons. This mechanical energy ultimately powers the vehicle's movement. Efficient energy conversion is crucial for optimal engine performance.
Short answer Yes. Petrol is useful for running a engine, and extremely dangerous if misused.
The engine will not run without a supply of petrol so you would think it is useful.

Petrol is British name for Gasoline
Yes, the energy output of an engine is governed by the chemical potential energy of the fuels. Assuming that the extra potential energy could be turned into useful work, there would be an energy advantage of diesel over petrol.
Well petrol is short for petroleum which is Gasoline! so unless your car runs on anything thing else i'd say its usefuL!
the carbon dioxide which comes from the burned petrol of cars is definitely harmful if you directly breathe it in, but not really harmful otherwise

The energy in a closed system is constant, which is the principle of Conservation of Energy, but in machines the amount of useful energy coming out is less than the amount going in. This is explained by lost energy. In a petrol engine the lost energy comes out in the form of heat because the engine block is hot, which happens because of friction in the bearings but also because the gas in the cylinder has to be at a high temperature and pressure.
they are useful for alot of things like petrol
Free energy
Used properly where it was intended to be used for gasoline powered engines is useful. Breathing gasoline vapors to get high is harmful not mention stupid.
