Consider a pair of circles $(|x| - 1)^2 + y^2 = 1$. Ram is moving along the circle centered at $(1, 0)$ in the clockwise direction at a rate of $2 \ m/s$,and Shyam is moving along the circle centered at $(-1, 0)$ in the anticlockwise direction at a rate of $1 \ m/s$. If Ram and Shyam start their journey from the origin $(0, 0)$,then the rate of change of the distance between Ram and Shyam at the instant when Ram crosses the $x$-axis for the first time is:

Two chords of the circle $x^2+y^2-2gx-2hy+g^2+h^2-c^2=0$ pass through the point $(g, h+c)$,and the line $y=x$ bisects these two chords. Then:

The minimum distance between the curves $x^2 + y^2 + 4x + 16y + 66 = 0$ and $y^2 = 8x$ is:

Let $y=mx+c, m>0$ be the focal chord of $y^{2}=-64x$,which is tangent to $(x+10)^{2}+y^{2}=4$. Then,the value of $4\sqrt{2}(m+c)$ is equal to $.....$
