Please, anybody explain the difference between detonation and knocking.

But nowaday, Most of the petrol engine comes with injector. And spark plug doesn't use in it. Why?

And I know petrol have low ignition temperature so how can we ignite it by compression in this type of petrol engine?

Compression ratio for SI engine is 16 : 1.

Spark plug use in petrol engine because we can not burn petrol by compression or pressure in a petrol engine is much lower than diesel engine it's about to 8 to 10 bar but in diesel engine, it becomes up to 18 to 20 bar.

Anyone can explain about why we are using spark plug in a petrol engine?

That's why the diesel engine mileage is higher than petrol engine.

The compression ratio of petrol engine is 6-10 and compression ratio of diesel engine is 15-22. Always should take nearer value. So 'B' is nearest Answer.

Petrol & diesel both viscosity difference, its calorific value also different.

Sir different between diesel and petrol.
