Let $$\overrightarrow a = \widehat i + 2\widehat j - \widehat k$$, $$\overrightarrow b = \widehat i - \widehat j$$ and $$\overrightarrow c = \widehat i - \widehat j - \widehat k$$ be three given vectors. If $$\overrightarrow r $$ is a vector such that $$\overrightarrow r \times \overrightarrow a = \overrightarrow c \times \overrightarrow a $$ and $$\overrightarrow r .\,\overrightarrow b = 0$$, then $$\overrightarrow r .\,\overrightarrow a $$ is equal to __________.

Let f(x) be a polynomial of degree 6 in x, in which the coefficient of x⁶ is unity and it has extrema at x = $$-$$1 and x = 1. If $$\mathop {\lim }\limits_{x \to 0} {{f(x)} \over {{x^3}}} = 1$$, then $$5.f(2)$$ is equal to _________.

A proton, a deuteron and an $$\alpha$$ particle are moving with same momentum in a uniform magnetic field. The ratio of magnetic forces acting on them is _________ and their speed is _______, in the ratio.

A solid sphere of radius R gravitationally attracts a particle placed at 3R from its centre with a force F₁. Now a spherical cavity of radius $$\left( {{R \over 2}} \right)$$ is made in the sphere (as shown in figure) and the force becomes F₂. The value of F₁ : F₂ is
