The S side of Earth for example is face to the sun which is summer
The N side of Earth of pointed away which is winter.

There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer can be easily deduced.
Distance traveled by the bicycle rider = 50 km
Time taken to travel the distance = 2.5 hours
So
In 2.5 hours the bicycle rider travels = 50 km
Then
In 1 hour the bicycle rider travels = 50/2.5
= 20 km
Then the average speed of the cyclist is 20 km per hour.
As we know that in order to melt the copper we need to take the temperature of copper to its melting point
So here heat required to raise the temperature of copper is given as

We know that
melting temperature of copper = 1085 degree C
Specific heat capacity of copper = 385 J/kg C
now we have



now in order to melt the copper we know the heat required is

here we know that
L = 205 kJ/kg
now from above formula


now total heat required will be


As we know that

now we have

Answer:
Part a)

Part b)
t = 12 s
Explanation:
Part a)
Tension in the rope at a distance x from the lower end is given as

so the speed of the wave at that position is given as

here we know that

now we have


Part b)
time taken by the wave to reach the top is given as
