Yes they both are.. Are you practicing for a test or what ? Pesky Wabbit is wrong... It is okay and proper when using a phrasal verb as in the examples you have given, to end the sentence with a (particle). A preposition when part of a phrasal verb is called a particle Wabbit)))) Phrasal verbs are verbs consisting of several parts, there can be two or more parts. Get up, go out, f222 off, look up, run out of, get in touch with, look out for, turn on, etc...

If you want to be a perfectly grammatically correct then perhaps you might ask what time your brother (is going to) get up. Going to shows previous knowledge, or an intended action. Will might be better if the speaker is asking when "...will you get my brother up?" As will is used when making a decision at the moment of speaking...

Neither are correct, because you've ended the sentences with a preposition.

One: When will my brother awaken?
Two: My brother will awaken at what time?

Both Correct.

The first one, perfect.

The second one may be worded like the following:

AT what time will my brother get up?

About what time will my brother get up?

Everyone who said there is anything wrong with these is wrong. There is no better way to say these and every single poster would say it just like this. It would be helpful if you ask these kinds of questions to explain why you think it might be wrong.

You'll hear native English speakers say both, and except for the pickiest people, both would be considered grammatically correct.

Both of them are correct. I think #2 is more specific.

someone earlier said these end in prepositions. i may be wrong but i think "up" when used here is a adverb and not a direction. it is describing get. so i think both are correct
