Answer:

The trains will meet after 2.6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the distances traveled by the two trains:

distance1 = (100 mph)(t hours)

distance2 = (90 mph)(t hours)

Sum of distance1 and distance2 = 494 miles = (190 mph)(t hours)

Solving for t, we get   t = 494 miles / 190 mph  = 2.6 hours

The trains will meet after 2.6 hours.

Find the length of the tangent segment AB to the circles centered at O and O' whose radii are a and b respectively when the circ
bixtya [17]

Answer:

AB=2\sqrt{ab}

Step-by-step explanation:

From figure,

OA=a,  \quad \quad O'B=b\\\Rightarrow OO'= (a+b) \quad \quad \text{and}\quad OD=(a-b)

In triangle OO'D

  (OO')^2=(OD)^2+(O' D)^2

\Rightarrow (a+b)^2=(a-b)^2+(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow a^2+b^2+2ab-a^2-b^2+2ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow 4ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow O'D=2\sqrt{ab} \\\Rightarrow O' D=2\sqrt{ab}=AB \quad \quad [\because O' DAB\;\; \text{is a rectangle.}]

Hence, AB=2\sqrt{ab}
