Answer:

The difference between ice and steam in Celsius (Centigrade) is 100 deg.

So the difference between and 4 cm and 24 cm of the thread corresponds to 100 deg C.

So 8 cm is 4 cm greater than the ice point

4 cm / 20 cm = 1/5     since the steam point and the ice point are 20 cm apart

Then 1/5 * 100  deg C = 20 deg C   the requested temperature

Answer:

5 m/s

Explanation:

Here we can see there is no external force acted on a two masses when we consider the motion. If there is no external forces then momentum is conserved.

Initial momentum = Final momentum

0.5 × 10  = 1 × V

V = 5 m/s
