In latest generation computers, the instructions are executed both sequencially and parallelly.

We know 60 min = 1 hr
Total northward Laxmi's distance = 20kmph x 1hr = 20 km
Total southward Prasanna's distance = 30kmph x 1hr = 30 km
Total distance between Prasanna and Laxmi is = 20 + 30 = 50 km.

Draw the two chords as shown in the figure. Let O be the center of the circle. Draw OC
perpendicular to both chords. That divides the two chords in half.
So CD = 10 and AB = 14. Draw radii OA and OD, both equal to radius r.
We are given that BC = 5, the distance between the two chords. Let
OB = x.

We use the Pythagorean theorem on right triangle ABO

AO² = AB² + OB²
r² = 14² + x²

We use the Pythagorean theorem on right triangle DCO

DO² = CD² + OC²

We see that OC = OB+BC = x+5, so

r² = 10² + (x+5)²

So we have a system of two equations:

r² = 14² + x²
r² = 10² + (x+5)²

Since both left sides equal r², set the right sides
equal to each other.

14² + x² = 10² + (x+5)²
196 + x² = 100 + x² + 10x + 25
196 = 125 + 10x
71 = 10x
7.1 = x

r² = 14² + x²
r² = 196 + (7.1)²
r² = 196 + 50.41
r² = 246.41
r = √246.41
r = 15.69745202 cm

In Afghanistan, Bamiyan caves.

'Maelstrom' refers to a violent and confused state. The word closest in meaning would be 'turmoil', which also means a state of great disturbance.
