Let $AB$ be a segment of length $1$. Several particles start moving simultaneously at constant speeds from $A$ up to$ B$. As soon as a particle reaches $B$ , turns around and goes to $A$; when it reaches $A$, begins to move again towards $ B$ , and so on indefinitely. Find all rational numbers$ r>1$ such that there exists an instant $t$ with the following property: For each $n\ge 1$ , if $n+1$ particles with constant speeds $1,r,r^2,…,r^n$ move as described, at instant $t$, they all lie at the same interior point of segment $AB$.
