We are given a polyhedron with at least $5$ vertices, such that exactly $3$ edges meet in each of the vertices. Prove that we can assign a rational number to every vertex of the given polyhedron such that the following conditions are met: $(i)$ At least one of the numbers assigned to the vertices is equal to $2020$. $(ii)$ For every polygonal face, the product of the numbers assigned to the vertices of that face is equal to $1$.

A space station consists of two living modules attached to a central hub on opposite sides of the hub by long corridors of equal length. Each living module contains $N$ astronauts of equal mass. The mass of the space station is negligible compared to the mass of the astronauts, and the size of the central hub and living modules is negligible compared to the length of the corridors. At the beginning of the day, the space station is rotating so that the astronauts feel as if they are in a gravitational field of strength $g$. Two astronauts, one from each module, climb into the central hub, and the remaining astronauts now feel a gravitational field of strength $g'$ . What is the ratio $g'/g$ in terms of $N$?[asy] import roundedpath; size(300); path a = roundedpath((0,-0.3)--(4,-0.3)--(4,-1)--(5,-1)--(5,0),0.1); draw(scale(+1,-1)*a); draw(scale(+1,+1)*a); draw(scale(-1,-1)*a); draw(scale(-1,+1)*a); filldraw(circle((0,0),1),white,black); filldraw(box((-2,-0.27),(2,0.27)),white,white); draw(arc((0,0),1.5,+35,+150),dashed,Arrow); draw(arc((0,0),1.5,-150,-35),dashed,Arrow);[/asy] $ \textbf{(A)}\ 2N/(N-1) $ $ \textbf{(B)}\ N/(N-1) $ $ \textbf{(C)}\ \sqrt{(N-1)/N} $ $ \textbf{(D)}\ \sqrt{N/(N-1)} $ $ \textbf{(E)}\ \text{none of the above} $

A hiking club wants to hike around a lake along an exactly circular route. On the shoreline they determine two points, which are the most distant from each other, and start to walk along the circle, which has these two points as the endpoints of its diameter. Can they be sure that, independent of the shape of the lake, they do not have to swim across the lake on any part of their route?
