[b]5.[/b] On a circle consider $n$ points among which there acts a repulsive force inversely proportional to the square of their distance. Prove that the point system is in stable equilibrium if and only if the points form a regular $n$-gon; in other words, considering the sum of the reciprocal distances of the $\binom{n}{2}$ pairs of points which can be chosen from among the $n$ given points, this sum is minimal if and only if the points lie at the vertices of a regular $n$-gon.

Catherine has a plate containing $300$ circular crumbling mooncakes, arranged as follows: [asy] unitsize(10); for (int i = 0; i < 16; ++i){ for (int j = 0; j < 3; ++j){ draw(circle((sqrt(3)*i,j),0.5)); draw(circle((sqrt(3)*(i+0.5),j-0.5),0.5)); } } dot((16*sqrt(3)+.5,.75)); dot((16*sqrt(3)+1,.75)); dot((16*sqrt(3)+1.5,.75)); [/asy] (This continues for $100$ total columns). She wants to pick some of the mooncakes to eat, however whenever she takes a mooncake all adjacent mooncakes will be destroyed and cannot be eaten. Let $M$ be the maximal number of mooncakes she can eat, and let $n$ be the number of ways she can pick $M$ mooncakes to eat (Note: the order in which she picks mooncakes does not matter). Compute the ordered pair ($M$, $n$).
