A massless string is wrapped around a frictionless pulley of mass $M$. The string is pulled down with a force of 50 N, so that the pulley rotates due to the pull. Consider a point $P$ on the rim of the pulley, which is a solid cylinder. The point has a constant linear (tangential) acceleration component equal to the acceleration of gravity on Earth, which is where this experiment is being held. What is the weight of the cylindrical pulley, in Newtons? [i](Proposed by Ahaan Rungta)[/i] [hide="Note"] This problem was not fully correct. Within friction, the pulley cannot rotate. So we responded: [quote]Excellent observation! This is very true. To submit, I'd say just submit as if it were rotating and ignore friction. In some effects such as these, I'm pretty sure it turns out that friction doesn't change the answer much anyway, but, yes, just submit as if it were rotating and you are just ignoring friction. [/quote]So do this problem imagining that the pulley does rotate somehow. [/hide]

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle. Let $\omega$ be a circle whose centre $L$ lies on the side $BC$. Suppose that $\omega$ is tangent to $AB$ at $B'$ and $AC$ at $C'$. Suppose also that the circumcentre $O$ of triangle $ABC$ lies on the shorter arc $B'C'$ of $\omega$. Prove that the circumcircle of $ABC$ and $\omega$ meet at two points.

On the sides of $\triangle{ABC}$ points $P,Q \in{AB}$ ($P$ is between $A$ and $Q$) and $R\in{BC}$ are chosen. The points $M$ and $N$ are defined as the intersection point of $AR$ with the segments $CP$ and $CQ$, respectively. If $BC=BQ$, $CP=AP$, $CR=CN$ and $\angle{BPC}=\angle{CRA}$, prove that $MP+NQ=BR$.

There is a token in one of the nodes of a hexagon with side $n$, divided into regular triangles (see figure). Two players take turns moving it to one of the neighboring nodes, and it is forbidden to go to a node that the token has already visited. The one who loses who can't make a move. Who wins with the right game? [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/2/f/18314fe7f9f4cd8e783037a8e5642e17f4e1be.png[/img]

Let us say that a subset $M$ of the plane contains a hole if there exists a disc not contained in $M$, but contained inside some polygon with the boundary lying in $M$. Can the plane be presented as a union of $n$ convex sets such that the union of any $n-1$ from them contains a hole? Proposed by: N.Spivak

Ravon, Oscar, Aditi, Tyrone, and Kim play a card game. Each person is given $2$ cards out of a set of $10$ cards numbered $1,2,3, \dots,10.$ The score of a player is the sum of the numbers of their cards. The scores of the players are as follows: Ravon--$11,$ Oscar--$4,$ Aditi--$7,$ Tyrone--$16,$ Kim--$17.$ Which of the following statements is true? $\textbf{(A) }\text{Ravon was given card 3.}$ $\textbf{(B) }\text{Aditi was given card 3.}$ $\textbf{(C) }\text{Ravon was given card 4.}$ $\textbf{(D) }\text{Aditi was given card 4.}$ $\textbf{(E) }\text{Tyrone was given card 7.}$

Let $\triangle{ABC}$ be a scalene triangle with the longest side $AC$. (A ${\textit{scalene triangle}}$ has sides of different lengths.) Let $P$ and $Q$ be the points on the side $AC$ such that $AP=AB$ and $CQ=CB$. Thus we have a new triangle $\triangle{BPQ}$ inside $\triangle{ABC}$. Let $k_1$ be the circle circumscribed around the triangle $\triangle{BPQ}$ (that is, the circle passing through the vertices $B,P,$ and $Q$ of the triangle $\triangle{BPQ}$); and let $k_2$ be the circle inscribed in triangle $\triangle{ABC}$ (that is, the circle inside triangle $\triangle{ABC}$ that is tangent to the three sides $AB,BC$, and $CA$). Prove that the two circles $k_1$ and $k_2$ are concentric, that is, they have the same center.

For an arbitrary ordinal number $\alpha$ let $H(\alpha)$ denote the set of functions $f\colon \alpha \rightarrow \{ -1,0,1\}$ that map all but finitely many elements of $\alpha$ to $0$. Order $H(\alpha)$ according to the last difference, that is, for $f, g\in H(\alpha)$ let $f\prec g$ if $f(\beta) < g(\beta)$ holds for the maximum ordinal number $\beta < \alpha$ with $f(\beta) \neq g(\beta)$. Prove that the ordered set $(H(\alpha), \prec)$ is scattered (i.e. it doesn't contain a subset isomorphic to the set of rational numbers with the usual order), and that any scattered order type can be embedded into some $(H(\alpha), \prec)$.
