More relatively easy ones: 1) A 10 foot rope ladder hangs over the side of a boat with the bottom rung on the surface of the water. The rungs are one foot apart, and the tide goes up at the rate of 6 inches per hour. How long will it be until three rungs are covered? 2) What is the eleven letter word that all Yale graduates spell incorrectly? 3) What can go up a chimney down but not down a chimney up? 4) A dog had 3 puppies, named Mopsy, Topsy and Spot. What was the mother's name. 5) Exactly how many slices of 1.5 cm each can you cut from a whole bread which is 22.5 cm long? 6) Who's bigger: Mr. Bigger, Mrs. Bigger or their baby? 7) An electric train is moving north at 100kph and a wind is blowing to the west at 10kph. Which way does the smoke blow? 8) When travelling from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean on the Panama Canal, does one travel east or west? 9) What is the longest word in the English dictionary and what does it mean? 10) Imagine a duck in a glass bottle. The neck of the bottle is too small to allow the duck through. The bottle is perfectly formed and has no trick bottoms or other openings. How do you get the duck out of the bottle without damaging either the duck or the bottle? Also, I always thought this was cool. Im sure most of you have heard of it. It is called Monty Hall's Dillema: Suppose you're on a game show, and you're given the choice of three doors. Behind one door is a car, behind the others, goats. You pick a door, say number 1, and the host, who knows what's behind the doors, opens another door, say number 3, which has a goat. He says to you, "Do you want to pick door number 2?" Is it to your advantage to switch your choice of doors? Why or Why not? ------------------
