A deer wants to save her life from a lion. The lion follows a path whose equation is \(x^{2} + y^{2} = 16\). For saving her life, the deer needs to move on a path whose equation will be:
1. \(x^{2} + y^{2} = 4\)
2. \(x^{2} + y^{2} = 16\)
3. \(x^{2} + y^{2} - 64 = 0\)
4. Both (1) and (3) are correct.​​​​​​​

A particle rotates in a circular path starting from rest. If angular acceleration is \(4~\text{rad/s}^{2}\), then the time after which angle between net acceleration and tangential acceleration becomes \(45^{\circ}\) is?

The position of a moving particle at time \(t\) is \(\overrightarrow{r}=3\hat{i}+4t^{2}\hat{j}-t^{3}\hat{k}.\) Its displacement during the time interval \(t=1\) s to \(t=3\) s will be:
