A $3\times 3\times 3$ cube is made of $1\times 1\times 1$ cubes glued together. What is the maximal number of small cubes one can remove so the remaining solid has the following features: 1) Projection of this solid on each face of the original cube is a $3\times 3$ square, 2) The resulting solid remains face-connected (from each small cube one can reach any other small cube along a chain of consecutive cubes with common faces).

Let $A$ and $B$ be positions of two ships $M$ and $N$, respectively, at the moment when $N$ saw $M$ moving with constant speed $v$ following the line $Ax$. In search of help, $N$ moves with speed $kv$ ($k < 1$) along the line $By$ in order to meet $M$ as soon as possible. Denote by $C$ the point of meeting of the two ships, and set \[AB = d, \angle BAC = \alpha, 0 \leq \alpha < \frac{\pi}{2}.\] Determine the angle $\angle ABC = \beta$ and time $t$ that $N$ needs in order to meet $M$.

Let $B$ be a set of $k$ sequences each having $n$ terms equal to $1$ or $-1$. The product of two such sequences $(a_1, a_2, \ldots , a_n)$ and $(b_1, b_2, \ldots , b_n)$ is defined as $(a_1b_1, a_2b_2, \ldots , a_nb_n)$.

A positive integer $n>1$ is called beautiful if $n$ can be written in one and only one way as $n=a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_k=a_1 \cdot a_2 \cdots a_k$ for some positive integers $a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_k$, where $k>1$ and $a_1 \geq a_2 \geq \cdots \geq a_k$. (For example 6 is beautiful since $6=3 \cdot 2 \cdot 1=3+2+1$, and this is unique. But 8 is not beautiful since $8=4+2+1+1=4 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 \cdot 1$ as well as $8=2+2+2+1+1=2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 1 \cdot 1$, so uniqueness is lost.) Find the largest beautiful number less than 100.
