A cylindrical container of revolution is partially filled with a liquid whose density we ignore. Placing it with the axis inclined $30^o$ with respect to the vertical, we observe that when removing liquid so that the level falls $1$ cm, the weight of the contents decreases $40$ g. How much will the weight of that content decrease for each centimeter that lower the level if the axis makes an angle of $45^o$ with the vertical? It is supposed that the horizontal surface of the liquid does not touch any of the bases of the container.

In a $3$ by $3$ table, by a $k$-worm, we mean a path of different cells $(S_1,S_2,...,S_k)$ such that each two consecutive cells have one side in common. The $k$-worm at each steep can go one cell forward and turn to the $(S,S_1,...,S_{k-1})$ if $S$ is an unfilled cell which is adjacent (has one side in common) with $S_1$. Find the maximum number of $k$ such that there is a $k$-worm $(S_1,...,S_k)$ such that after finitly many steps can be turned to $(S_k,...,S_1)$.
