Let $n > 3$ be a positive integer. Suppose that $n$ children are arranged in a circle, and $n$ coins are distributed between them (some children may have no coins). At every step, a child with at least 2 coins may give 1 coin to each of their immediate neighbors on the right and left. Determine all initial distributions of the coins from which it is possible that, after a finite number of steps, each child has exactly one coin.

Let $p = 491$ be prime. Let $S$ be the set of ordered $k$-tuples of nonnegative integers that are less than $p$. We say that a function $f\colon S \to S$ is \emph{$k$-murine} if, for all $u,v\in S$, $\langle f(u), f(v)\rangle \equiv \langle u,v\rangle \pmod p$, where $\langle(a_1,\dots ,a_k) , (b_1, \dots , b_k)\rangle = a_1b_1+ \dots +a_kb_k$ for any $(a_1, \dots a_k), (b_1, \dots b_k) \in S$. Let $m(k)$ be the number of $k$-murine functions. Compute the remainder when $m(1) + m(2) + m(3) + \cdots + m(p)$ is divided by $488$. [i]Proposed by Brandon Wang[/i]

Several identical cars are standing at a red light on a one-lane road, one behind the other, with negligible (and equal) distance between adjacent cars. When the green light comes up, the first car takes off to the right with constant acceleration. The driver in the second car reacts and does the same 0.2 s later. The third driver starts moving 0.2 s after the second one and so on. All cars accelerate until they reach the speed limit of 45 km/hr, after which they move to the right at a constant speed. Consider the following patterns of cars. Just before the first car starts accelerating to the right, the car pattern will qualitatively look like the pattern in I. After that, the pattern will qualitatively evolve according to which of the following? $\textbf{(A)}\text{first I, then II, and then III}$ $\textbf{(B)}\text{first I, then II, and then IV}$ $\textbf{(C)}\text{first I, and then IV, with neither II nor III as an intermediate stage}$ $\textbf{(D)}\text{first I, and then II}$ $\textbf{(E)}\text{first I, and then III}$
