Answer:

10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Old proportions:

2 x 3

New proportions

h x 15

Assuming the painting has been increased by a constant scale factor.

Where x is the unknown scale factor, and h is the height after it has been enlarged.

3 * x = 15\\2 * x = h

Rearrange second equation:

3 * x = 15\\x =\frac{h}{2}

Substitute:

3*\frac{h}{2} =15\\\frac{h}{2}=5\\h=10

Answer:

hey!

your answer is

10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is this because,

15 inches is 3 inches times by 5

so we would have to times 2 inches by 5 to get 10 inches

so the dimensions would be 10 inches in length and 15 inches in width

hope this helps

How much energy would a 15,000 g block of ice need to absorb in order to
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The energy a 15,000 g block of ice will absorb in order to melt is 4995 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

The question relates to the latent heat of fusion of ice, that is the heat absorbed by the solid ice to convert it to liquid water without changing its temperature.

The formula for the energy required to melt the ice is presented as follows;

Energy required = Mass, m × Latent heat of fusion, L_f, of ice

Hence, the mass, m, of the ice = 15,000 g

Latent heat of fusion, L_f, of ice = 333 J/g

Therefore;

Energy required = 15,000 g × 333 J/g = 4995000 J

Hence;

The energy a 15,000 g block of ice will absorb in order to melt = 4995000 J

1000 J = 1 kJ

1 J = 1/1000 kJ

Therefore, 4995000 J = (4995000 J)/(1000 J/kJ) = 4995 kJ.

Which gives;

The energy a 15,000 g block of ice will absorb in order to melt = 4995 kJ.
