A particle is projected with velocity v₀ along x-axis. A damping force is acting on the particle which is proportional to the square of the distance from the origin i.e. ma = $$-$$ $$\alpha$$x². The distance at which the particle stops :

A particle moving in the xy plane experiences a velocity dependent force
$$\overrightarrow F = k\left( {{v_y}\widehat i + {v_x}\widehat j} \right)$$ , where v_x and v_y are the
x and y components of its velocity $$\overrightarrow v $$ . If $$\overrightarrow a $$ is the
acceleration of the particle, then
which of the following statements is true for the particle?

An insect is at the bottom of a hemispherical ditch of radius 1 m. It crawls up the ditch but starts slipping after it is at height h from the bottom. If the coefficient of friction between the ground and the insect is 0.75, then h is :
(g = 10 ms^–2)

A spaceship in space sweeps stationary interplanetary dust. As a result, its mass
increases at a rate $${{dM\left( t \right)} \over {dt}}$$ = bv²(t), where v(t) is its instantaneous velocity. The instantaneous acceleration of the satellite is :
