A spherical iron ball $$10$$ cm in radius is coated with a layer of ice of uniform thickness that melts at a rate of $$50$$ cm$$^3$$ /min. When the thickness of ice is $$5$$ cm, then the rate at which the thickness of ice decreases is

A lizard, at an initial distance of 21 cm behind an insect moves from rest with an acceleration of $2 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}^2$ and pursues the insect which is crawling uniformly along a straight line at a speed of $20 \mathrm{~cm} / \mathrm{s}$. Then the lizard will catch the insect after :

A point on the parabola $${y^2} = 18x$$ at which the ordinate increases at twice the rate of the abscissa is

A function $$y=f(x)$$ has a second order derivative $$f''\left( x \right) = 6\left( {x - 1} \right).$$ If its graph passes through the point $$(2, 1)$$ and at that point the tangent to the graph is $$y = 3x - 5$$, then the function is :
