Two beads, each of mass $m$, are free to slide on a rigid, vertical hoop of mass $m_h$. The beads are threaded on the hoop so that they cannot fall off of the hoop. They are released with negligible velocity at the top of the hoop and slide down to the bottom in opposite directions. The hoop remains vertical at all times. What is the maximum value of the ratio $m/m_h$ such that the hoop always remains in contact with the ground? Neglect friction.

[b]p10.[/b] Haoyang has a circular cylinder container with height $50$ and radius $5$ that contains $5$ tennis balls, each with outer-radius $5$ and thickness $1$. Since Haoyang is very smart, he figures out that he can fit in more balls if he cuts each of the balls in half, then puts them in the container, so he is ”stacking” the halves. How many balls would he have to cut up to fill up the container? PS. You should use hide for answers. Collected [url=https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c5h2760506p24143309]here[/url].

The pages of a book are numbered 1 through $n$. When the page numbers of the book were added, one of the page numbers was mistakenly added twice, resulting in an incorrect sum of 1986. What was the number of the page that was added twice?

Find the minimum of $f(x,y,z)=x^3+12\frac{yz}{x}+16(\frac{1}{yz})^{\frac{3}{2}}$ where $x,y$, and $z$ are all positive. Note: The problem as given in the tiebreaker did not specify that each of $x,y$, and $z$ had to be positive. Without this constraint, the answer is $-\infty$, as $x^3$ can be an arbitrarily large negative value and dominate the expression.
