You have to take note of the individual directions of the plane. Since one is heading east, and the other is heading west, the planes are heading at opposite directions. So, it means that their distance between each other would be equal to 1,200 miles which accounts for the sum of their individual distances. The equation is as follows:

Total Distance = Distance of slower plane + Distance of faster plane
1,200 miles = st + (30+s)(t)
where
s is the speed of the slower plane and t is the time. Since both are not given, the final answer would just be in terms of s.
1,200 = t(s + 30 + s)
t = 1200/(30+2s)
t = 600/(15+s)

___ acceleration occurs when an object speeds up
AleksandrR [38]

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over time.

When there is an increment or increase in the magnitude of velocity of a moving body then it is known as positive acceleration.

Whereas when there is a decrease in magnitude of velocity of a moving body then it is known as negative acceleration.

Thus, we can conclude that positive acceleration occurs when an object speeds up.

State how much energy is transferred in each of the following cases: 2 grams of steam at 100 degrees Celsius condenses to water
dusya [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

When 2 gms of steam condenses to water at 100 degree latent heat of vaporization is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x latent heat of vaporization

= 2 x 2260 = 4520 J

When 2 gms of water  at 100 degree is cooled to ice water at zero degree  heat  is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x specific heat x( 100-0)

= 2 x 4.2 x 100 = 840 J

When 2 gms of water at zero degree  condenses to ice at zero degree latent heat of fusion  is releases which is calculated as follows

Heat released = mass x latent heat of fusion

= 2 x 334 = 668 J

When 2 grams of steam at 100 degrees Celsius turns to ice at 0 degrees Celsius heat released will be sum of all the heat released as mentioned above ie

4520 + 840 +668 = 6028 J
