Two spherical stars $A$ and $B$ have densities $\rho_{A}$ and $\rho_{B}$, respectively. $A$ and $B$ have the same radius, and their masses $M_{A}$ and $M_{B}$ are related by $M_{B}=2 M_{A}$. Due to an interaction process, star $A$ loses some of its mass, so that its radius is halved, while its spherical shape is retained, and its density remains $\rho_{A}$. The entire mass lost by $A$ is deposited as a thick spherical shell on $B$ with the density of the shell being $\rho_{A}$. If $v_{A}$ and $v_{B}$ are the escape velocities from $A$ and $B$ after the interaction process, the ratio $\frac{v_{B}}{v_{A}}=\sqrt{\frac{10 n}{15^{1 / 3}}}$. The value of $n$ is __________ .

All three masses interact only through their mutual gravitational interaction. When the point mass nearer to M is at a distance r = 3l from M the tension in the rod is zero for m = $$k\left( {{M \over {288}}} \right)$$. The value of k is
