A block of mass $$m = 1$$ kg slides with velocity $$v = 6$$ m s$$^{-1}$$ on a frictionless horizontal surface and collides with a uniform vertical rod and sticks to it as shown. The rod is pivoted about O and swings as a result of the collision making angle $$\theta$$ before momentarily coming to rest. If the rod has mass $$M = 2$$ kg, and length $$\ell = 1$$ m, the value of $$\theta$$ is approximately (take $$g = 10$$ m s$$^{-2}$$)

A satellite is moving in a low nearly circular orbit around the earth. Its radius is roughly equal to that of the earth's radius $$R_e$$. By firing rockets attached to it, its speed is instantaneously increased in the direction of its motion so that it becomes $$\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}}$$ times larger. Due to this the farthest distance from the centre of the earth that the satellite reaches is $$R$$. Value of $$R$$ is:
