Let $f,g:[a,b]\to [0,\infty)$ be two continuous and non-decreasing functions such that each $x\in [a,b]$ we have \[ \int^x_a \sqrt { f(t) }\ dt \leq \int^x_a \sqrt { g(t) }\ dt \ \ \textrm{and}\ \int^b_a \sqrt {f(t)}\ dt = \int^b_a \sqrt { g(t)}\ dt. \] Prove that \[ \int^b_a \sqrt { 1+ f(t) }\ dt \geq \int^b_a \sqrt { 1 + g(t) }\ dt. \]
Consider a convex polygon $A_{1}A_{2}\ldots A_{n}$ and a point $M$ inside it. The lines $A_{i}M$ intersect the perimeter of the polygon second time in the points $B_{i}$. The polygon is called balanced if all sides of the polygon contain exactly one of points $B_{i}$ (strictly inside). Find all balanced polygons. [Note: The problem originally asked for which $n$ all convex polygons of $n$ sides are balanced. A misunderstanding made this version of the problem appear at the contest]

On a straight track are several runners, each running at a di fferent constant speed. They start at one end of the track at the same time. When a runner reaches any end of the track, he immediately turns around and runs back with the same speed (then he reaches the other end and turns back again, and so on). Some time after the start, all runners meet at the same point. Prove that this will happen again.
