Let $ a$ be a positive real number, in Euclidean space, consider the two disks:
$ D_1\equal{}\{(x,\ y,\ z)| x^2\plus{}y^2\leq 1,\ z\equal{}a\}$,
$ D_2\equal{}\{(x,\ y,\ z)| x^2\plus{}y^2\leq 1,\ z\equal{}\minus{}a\}$.
Let $ D_1$ overlap to $ D_2$ by rotating $ D_1$ about the $ y$ axis by $ 180^\circ$. Note that the rotational direction is supposed to be the direction such that we would lean the postive part of the $ z$ axis to into the direction of the postive part of $ x$ axis. Let denote $ E$ the part in which $ D_1$ passes while the rotation, let denote $ V(a)$ the volume of $ E$ and let $ W(a)$ be the volume of common part of $ E$ and $ \{(x,\ y,\ z)|x\geq 0\}$.
(1) Find $ W(a)$.
(2) Find $ \lim_{a\rightarrow \infty} V(a)$.

We are given a combination lock consisting of $6$ rotating discs. Each disc consists of digits $0, 1, 2,\ldots , 9$ in that order (after digit $9$ comes $0$). Lock is opened by exactly one combination. A move consists of turning one of the discs one digit in any direction and the lock opens instantly if the current combination is correct. Discs are initially put in the position $000000$, and we know that this combination is not correct.
[list]
a) What is the least number of moves necessary to ensure that we have found the correct combination?
b) What is the least number of moves necessary to ensure that we have found the correct combination, if we
know that none of the combinations $000000, 111111, 222222, \ldots , 999999$ is correct?[/list]

Given a point $P$ on a triangular piece of paper $ABC,$ consider the creases that are formed in the paper when $A, B,$ and $C$ are folded onto $P.$ Let us call $P$ a fold point of $\triangle ABC$ if these creases, which number three unless $P$ is one of the vertices, do not intersect. Suppose that $AB=36, AC=72,$ and $\angle B=90^\circ.$ Then the area of the set of all fold points of $\triangle ABC$ can be written in the form $q\pi-r\sqrt{s},$ where $q, r,$ and $s$ are positive integers and $s$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. What is $q+r+s$?

Define $f : \mathbb{Z}_+ \to \mathbb{Z}_+$ such that $f(1) = 1$ and $f(n) $ is the greatest prime divisor of $n$ for $n > 1$.
Aino and Väinö play a game, where each player has a pile of stones. On each turn the player to turn with $m$ stones in his pile may remove at most $f(m)$ stones from the opponent's pile, but must remove at least one stone. (The own pile stays unchanged.) The first player to clear the opponent's pile wins the game. Prove that there exists a positive integer $n$ such that Aino loses, when both players play optimally, Aino starts, and initially both players have $n$ stones.
