Car B starts at point X and moves clockwise around a circular track at a constant rate of 2 mph. Ten hours later, Car A leaves f
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

20.96 h

Explanation:

The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles

In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.

From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:

xa = 3t

And the distance of B would be:

xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t

The time t where they would passed each other and put  12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:

xa - xb = 12

3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12

5t = 20 pi - 8

t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h

Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:

t = 20.96h

Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?
N76 [4]
Density applies to many if not all aspects of life.  With density you can explain why ice floats.   You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas).  You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.
