Answer:

Geothermal power plants require high-temperature (300°F to 700°F) hydrothermal resources that come from either dry steam wells or from hot water wells. People use these resources by drilling wells into the earth and then piping steam or hot water to the surface. The hot water or steam powers a turbine that generates electricity. Some geothermal wells are as much as 2 miles deep.

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
