A man approaches you in a dark alley. He says, "If you tell a lie, I will kill you with a knife. If you tell the truth, I will kill you with a gun." What do you say to stay alive?

There are 100 hunters with 100 dogs in a village. Every hunter can only see other people's dogs. One day, a visitor to the village told the hunters that there are dogs in the village with rabies and must be put down. Every night the hunters would stand in a circle and stare at each other's dogs without seeing his own. They did this for three nights; on the fourth night, all the dogs with rabies were killed. How many dogs had rabies and how did a hunter determine whether or not his dog had rabies?

anyways, whats the point of the riddle if you are gonna tell the answer anyways? :?

What do you serve that you can't eat?



*Ahum*.. he was correct.

Plants don't need oxygen, they make oxygen.
Plants take in carbon dioxide which we breathe out, and they create oxygen by photosynthesis. he was right.

Here's a question nobody knows:

Why did the chicken cross the road?

And the follow up:

Who let the chicken out in the first place?

But that's only half the deal.

To get energy to maintain processes they need to do the reverse and "burn" the sugar and convert it back to carbon dioxide much like humans.

But when it's light the formation of oxygen has a larger share so it seems that plants don't use any oxygen, but during the dark when a large part of the photosynthesis cycle isn't working, the plant must still burn sugar in order to stay alive and then it becomes apparent that plants use oxygen as their own supply is not working.



Let me quote myself for Iceayla who didn't read the previous page thoroughly.

Guess I should answer the last one:
Which fragment is correct? The yolk of the egg is white or the yolk of the egg are white?

yellow

2:
Easy:
You are growing bacteria in a lab. You know the bacteria colony grows by doubling every minute. You give them some sugar to begin the growth at 8:00 P.M. and the next morning, you come back and find the petri-dish half full at 9:12 A.M. When will your bacteria fill the petri-dish?

Medium:
On another game show, you have 100 bags (that can be opened) in front of you with 1000 pieces of gold in each bag. Each piece of gold weighs exactly 10g (small pieces, 10,000g total per bag) except one bag, where the gold pieces weight 11g (11,000g bag). You have a digital scale in front of you that displays weight to the nearest gram and up to infinite grams. How can you take home the bag with the heaviest gold if you can only use the digital scale once?

2nd one, can you put all of the bags on the scale and then remove the bags one by one?As you remove the bags they should go down by 10,000 grams each time, when you remove a bag that removes more than 10,000 that is your bag.

Nope, if the number changes it counts as a second weighing. you're only allowed to see one number.

There are three light switches up in the attic of an old house... They control three light bulbs down in the basement. The problem is that you don't know which switch is connected to which bulb. You can make one trip down to the basement to figure this out.

heres one thats not in my words, but i was refering to earlier...
dont tell the answer if you know it :>

@ SM Iono then >.>

Viet uhmmm.
Turn on switch on leave it on for a while, Turn it off then turn another one on.
If you touch the bulbs one should be warm one should be cold and the other should be on .
Am I right?
(Didn't google, just experience with lightbulbs)

---Alice lies on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays and tells the truth every other day. One day Alice said, "Yesterday I was lying and two days after tomorrow I will be lying again." What day did she say this?

---In the world there are only knights and thieves. Knights always tell the truth and thieves always lie. One day two people walk up to you, you ask, "Is at least one of you a knight?" After the response you immediately knew who they were. Who answered and what are the identities of the two people?

---You have two piece of rope that were thrown out form the rope factory because of uneven length and throughout the length of the rope there are many random knots. If you were to light either of the rope with a match it would take exactly one hour to burn through the entire rope, knots and all. Unfortunately the random knots make it impossible to tell time besides one hour. (one rope could burn 1/3 of the way in half an hour, the other could burn 4/7 of the way to show 15 minutes) Given a box of matches and these two rope only, how could you tell when fourty-five minutes have gone by?

---A ladder hangs over the side of a ship anchored in a port. The bottom rung touches the water. The distance between rungs is 20 cm and the length of the ladder is 180 cm. The tide is rising at the rate of 40 cm per hour. When the water reach the seventh rung from the top?

---Three people are sitting in a room wearing hats. There are 2 white hats and 1 black hat. The first person can see the second and third person's hats. The second person can see the third person's hat and the third person is staring at the wall. No person can see his own hat. After a minute of silence, someone announces his hat color correctly, who was it and what color is his hat?

---Three people check into a hotel together and pay $10 each. After they've reached their rooms, the manager of the hotel realised that the room only costs $25. The manager gave a bellboy $5 to return to the customers. On the way up to the customer's rooms, the bellboy reasoned that dividing $5 among three people would be much too difficult for what was sure to be tired travelers, so he kept $2 for himself and gave the customers $3. Now each of the customers paid $9, that means they paid a total of $27. The bellboy kept $2 for himself. That totals $29. What happened to the final dollar?

---In the world there are only knights and thieves. and rich and poor. Knights always tell the truth and thieves always lie, wealth does not change that. Assume an equal distribution for all 4 types of people (i.e. rich knight, poor knight, rich thief, poor thief) In this world, there was a beautiful princess who would only allow herself to be married off to a rich thief. If she wanted to only hear one sentence from each suitor, what can a rich thief say to her for her hand? And what if she only wanted a rich knight, what could a rich knight say?

Keep you busy

First person. He can see two people, If one hat is black and other is white then his hat must be white.
-In the world there are only knights and thieves. Knights always tell the truth and thieves always lie. One day two people walk up to you, you ask, "Is at least one of you a knight?" After the response you immediately knew who they were. Who answered and what are the identities of the two people?

The one who said yes is a Knight since he only tells the truth and the one who says no is the thief since he always lies
Edit:

Light the 1st rope thats half an hour when 1/3 burns, then light the second rope when it gets to 4/7 thats 45 minutes

Edit 2:
-Three people check into a hotel together and pay $10 each. After they've reached their rooms, the manager of the hotel realised that the room only costs $25.

25$ for room + 3$ for guys + 2$ for bell boy
All the money is there

Edit 3:

Rich Thief -> I am a poor thief
Poor thief --> I am a rich thief
Rich knight --> I am a rich knight
Poor knight --> I am a poor knight

First is right. Second is wrong, only one person answers with yes or no and you know both identities. Third is wrong, it's not 1/3, I'm just saying it could be 1/3, it could also be 1/5 or 1/4, it's variable. The only constant in the third one is lighting the rope it burns from one end to the other in 1 hour, anything less than that is immeasurable (as in you can't judge just by looking)
