$\bar{a}, \bar{b}, \bar{c}$ are nonzero vectors such that $\bar{a}$ is perpendicular to $\bar{b}$ and $\bar{c}$,$|\bar{a}|=1, |\bar{b}|=2, |\bar{c}|=1$ and $\bar{b} \cdot \bar{c}=1$. There is a nonzero vector $\bar{d}$ coplanar with $\bar{a}+\bar{b}$ and $2\bar{b}-\bar{c}$. If $\bar{d} \cdot \bar{a}=1$,then $|\bar{d}|^2=$ (Note that $x$ and $y$ are parameters involved when we write $\bar{d}=x(\bar{a}+\bar{b})+y(2\bar{b}-\bar{c})$)

Let two non-collinear vectors $\hat{a}$ and $\hat{b}$ form an acute angle. $A$ point $P$ moves such that at any time $t$,the position vector $\overline{OP}$,where $O$ is the origin,is given by $\hat{a} \sin t + \hat{b} \cos t$. When $P$ is farthest from the origin $O$,let $M$ be the length of $\overline{OP}$ and $\hat{u}$ be the unit vector along $\overline{OP}$. Then:
