By dropping a stone in a quiet lake,a wave in the form of a circle is generated. The radius of the circular wave increases at the rate of $2.1 \text{ cm/sec}$. Then the rate of increase of the enclosed circular region,when the radius of the circular wave is $10 \text{ cm}$,is (Given $\pi = \frac{22}{7}$)

Two ships $A$ and $B$ are sailing straight away from a fixed point $O$ along routes such that $\angle AOB$ is always $120^o$. At a certain instance,$OA = 8 \ km$,$OB = 6 \ km$ and the ship $A$ is sailing at the rate of $20 \ km/hr$ while the ship $B$ is sailing at the rate of $30 \ km/hr$. Then the distance between $A$ and $B$ is changing at the rate (in $km/hr$):

$A$ $10 \, cm$ long rod $AB$ moves with its ends on two mutually perpendicular straight lines $OX$ and $OY$. If the end $A$ is moving at the rate of $2 \, cm/sec$,then when the distance of $A$ from $O$ is $8 \, cm$,the rate at which the end $B$ is moving is:

$A$ particle is moving on a straight line,where its position $s$ (in metre) is a function of time $t$ (in seconds) given by $s = at^2 + bt + 6, t \ge 0$. If it is known that the particle comes to rest after $4 \, s$ at a distance of $16 \, m$ from the starting position $(t = 0)$,then the retardation in its motion is

$A$ particle is moving in a straight line according to the formula $s = t^2 + 8t + 12$. If $s$ is measured in meters and $t$ is measured in seconds,then the average velocity of the particle in the third second is .......... $m/s$.
