Darryl has a six-sided die with faces $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6$ . He knows the die is weighted so that one face comes up with probability $1/2$ and the other five faces have equal probability of coming up. He unfortunately does not know which side is weighted, but he knows each face is equally likely to be the weighted one. He rolls the die $5$ times and gets a $1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5$ in some unspecified order. Compute the probability that his next roll is a $6$ .

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? *(Proposed by Ahaan Rungta)* <details><summary>Note</summary>This problem was not fully correct. Within friction, the pulley cannot rotate. So we responded: <blockquote>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. </blockquote>So do this problem imagining that the pulley does rotate somehow.</details>

Palmer and James work at a dice factory, placing dots on dice. Palmer builds his dice correctly, placing the dots so that $1$ , $2$ , $3$ , $4$ , $5$ , and $6$ dots are on separate faces. In a fit of mischief, James places his $21$ dots on a die in a peculiar order, putting some nonnegative integer number of dots on each face, but not necessarily in the correct con figuration. Regardless of the confi guration of dots, both dice are unweighted and have equal probability of showing each face after being rolled. Then Palmer and James play a game. Palmer rolls one of his normal dice and James rolls his peculiar die. If they tie, they roll again. Otherwise the person with the larger roll is the winner. What is the maximum probability that James wins? Give one example of a peculiar die that attains this maximum probability.

Lines $l_1$ and $l_2$ both pass through the origin and make first-quadrant angles of $\frac{\pi}{70}$ and $\frac{\pi}{54}$ radians, respectively, with the positive x-axis. For any line $l$ , the transformation $R(l)$ produces another line as follows: $l$ is reflected in $l_1$ , and the resulting line is reflected in $l_2$ . Let $R^{(1)}(l)=R(l)$ and $R^{(n)}(l)=R\left(R^{(n-1)}(l)\right)$ . Given that $l$ is the line $y=\frac{19}{92}x$ , find the smallest positive integer $m$ for which $R^{(m)}(l)=l$ .

Let $N$ be a given positive integer. Consider a permutation of $1,2,3,\cdots,N$ , denoted as $p_1,p_2,\cdots,p_N$ . For a section $p_l, p_{l+1},\cdots, p_r$ , we call it "extreme" if $p_l$ and $p_r$ are the maximum and minimum value of that section. We say a permutation $p_1,p_2,\cdots,p_N$ is "super balanced" if there isn't an "extreme" section with a length at least $3$ . For example, $1,4,2,3$ is "super balanced", but $3,1,2,4$ isn't. Please answer the following questions: 1. How many "super balanced" permutations are there? 2. For each integer $M\leq N$ . How many "super balanced" permutations are there such that $p_1=M$ ? *Proposed by ltf0501*
