An object of constant mass is projected away from the earth with initial velocity
in a direction perpendicular to the earth's surface. Assuming there is no air resistance and considering the variation of the earth's gravitational field as a function of the altitude
above the earth's surface, the velocity of the object satisfies the differential equation
, where
is the radius of the earth.
A) Solve for the velocity
as a function of

Bees in a certain region are born at a rate that is proportional to their current population. Without any outside factors the population doubles in 3 weeks' time. It was observed that each day 12 bees joined the population, 10 were caught by men, and 5 died of natural causes.
Determine whether the population will survive if initially it counted 100 bees. If not, when will it die out?
