A $20 \,cm$ long tube is closed at one end. It is held vertically, and its open end is dipped in water until only half of it is outside the water surface. Consequently, water rises in it by height $h$ as shown in the figure. The value of $h$ is closest to .............. $\,m / s$ (assume that the temperature remains constant, $P _{\text {armosphere }}=10^5 \,N / m ^2$, density. of water $=10^3 \,kg / m ^3$, and acceleration due to gravity $g =10 \,m / s ^2$ )

A particle is situated at the origin of a coordinate system. The following forces begin to act on the particle simultaneously (Assuming particle is initially at rest)

${\vec F_1} = 5\hat i - 5\hat j + 5\hat k$ ${\vec F_2} = 2\hat i + 8\hat j + 6\hat k$

${\vec F_3} = - 6\hat i + 4\hat j - 7\hat k$ ${\vec F_4} = - \hat i - 3\hat j - 2\hat k$

Then the particle will move
