Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the roots of $x^2 - \sqrt{2}x + 1 = 0$. Then the value of $\alpha^{50} + \beta^{50}$ is:

$Quantity \, 1:$ Original duration of flight. In a flight of $3000 \, km$,an aircraft was slowed down by bad weather. Its average speed for the trip was reduced by $100 \, km/hr$ and the time increased by $1 \, hour$.
$Quantity \, 2:$ Usual time of a man who,when walking at $\frac{3}{4}$ of his usual pace,reaches his office $20 \, minutes$ late.

$Quantity$ $1$: Height of the tank if the volume of a cylindrical tank is $12320 \, cm^3$. Its radius and height are in the ratio of $7:10$ respectively. $Quantity$ $2$: Height of the kerosene level in a jar if a cone of radius $2 \, cm$ and height $3 \, cm$ is melted and recast into a cylinder of radius $2 \, cm$.

Let $\alpha, \beta$ be the roots of $x^2 - x + p = 0$ and $\gamma, \delta$ be the roots of $x^2 - 4x + q = 0$. If $\alpha, \beta, \gamma, \delta$ are in $G.P.$,then the integral values of $p, q$ are respectively:

If exactly one root of the equation $x^2 + (a - 1)x + 2a = 0$ lies in the interval $(0, 3)$,then the set of values of $a$ is given by:
