If the shortest distance between the line joining the points (1, 2, 3) and (2, 3, 4), and the line $${{x - 1} \over 2} = {{y + 1} \over { - 1}} = {{z - 2} \over 0}$$ is $$\alpha$$, then 28$$\alpha^2$$ is equal to ____________.

Let $$\alpha \in\mathbb{R}$$ and let $$\alpha,\beta$$ be the roots of the equation $${x^2} + {60^{{1 \over 4}}}x + a = 0$$. If $${\alpha ^4} + {\beta ^4} = - 30$$, then the product of all possible values of $$a$$ is ____________.

Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

A particle executes simple harmonic motion between $$x=-A$$ and $$x=+A$$. If time taken by particle to go from $$x=0$$ to $$\frac{A}{2}$$ is 2 s; then time taken by particle in going from $$x=\frac{A}{2}$$ to A is
