42. I read the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

There are 100 light bulbs lined up in a row in a long room. Each bulb has its own switch and is currently switched off. The room has an entry door and an exit door. There are 100 people lined up outside the entry door. Each bulb is numbered consecutively from 1 to 100. So is each person. Person No. 1 enters the room, switches on every bulb, and exits. Person No. 2 enters and flips the switch on every second bulb (turning off bulbs 2, 4, 6, …). Person No. 3 enters and flips the switch on every third bulb (changing the state on bulbs 3, 6, 9, …). This continues until all 100 people have passed through the room. What is the final state of bulb No. 64? And how many of the light bulbs are illuminated after the 100th person has passed through the room?

(this is the hardest riddle that I found.)

Ok, Eduardo, I think I got your answer (I didn't look this up, but I'm pretty sure its right).

I started with the 64th switch, trying to determine how many times it was switched. I looked at the factors, and found that it will be switched by persons 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, and 64 (1*64, 2*32, 8*8, and 16*4). That is seven times, and the switch started in the off position, so ultimately, it will be on .

I tried this process for a couple other numbers, and quickly realized that there was a pattern. Almost all the switches are switched an even number of times, since even prime numbers will be switched by person 1, and then the person corresponding the that number (ex. 23 is switched by person 1 and person 23). Thus, almost all switches will be off at the end. The exceptions are numbers with square roots, since those multiplication pairs yield only one number. That is kind of hard to explain, but look at 64: 1*64 is the first multiplication pair, and shows that the switch will be activated once by person 1 (on the 64th switch) and once by person 64 (on the 1st switch). The same is true of the other pairs, except for 8*8. This will yield only one switch: person 8 on the 8th switch. Thus, all numbers with square roots yield an odd number of switches and will remain on at the end. These numbers are: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, and 100.

That means that at the end, 10 bulbs will be illuminated, including #64 .

Now for my riddle; I've heard this riddle in a different form, but its easier to cut and paste than to type it out by hand, so here you go...

Q: You approach two talking doors. One door leads to the City of Truth, while the other door leads to the City of Liars. You do not know which door is which. You are able to ask only one question to determine which door is which. The door that leads to the City of Liars always speaks lies, while the door that leads to the City of Truth always speaks the truth. You want to go to the City of Truth. What question do you ask to determine which door leads to the City of Truth?

You ask a a door - "If I were to ask the other door which door leads to the city of truth, what would he say". And then you pick the opposite door of what he tells you.

It depends on how big the tounge is, how hot the tounge is, how hot the day is, the size of the blowpop, and what size underwear
and to an average its 42064 licks.

...i've got an easy one for you all

 


A 'snooker' table (measuring 8 metres by 4m) with 4 'pockets' (measuring 0.5m and placed at diagonal slants in all 4 corners) contains 10 balls (each with a diameter of 0.25m) placed at the following coords:

2m,1m...(white ball)
...and red balls...
1m,5m... 2m,5m... 3m,5m
1m,6m... 2m,6m... 3m,6m
1m,7m... 2m,7m... 3m,7m

Pocket length 0.5m
ball diameter 0.25m

The white ball is then shot at a particular angle from 0 to 360 degrees (0 being north, and going clockwise).
Just to make it clear, a ball is 'potted' if at least half of the ball is in area of the 'pocket'

Assuming the balls travel indefinitely (i.e. No loss of energy via friction, air resistance or collisions), answer the following:

A: What exact angle/s should you choose to ensure that all the balls are potted the quickest?
b: What is the minimum amount of contacts the balls can make with each other before they are all knocked in?
c: Same as b, except that each ball - just before it is knocked in - must not have hit the white ball on its previous contact (must be a red instead of course).
d: What proportion of angles will leave the white ball the last on the table to be potted?

 

 

 

Saturday, February 25, 2006 at 7:18:27 AM

A: it depends on what level of pool player you are, beginner, intermediate, or advanced.

B: 10, because there are 10 balls.

C: uhh... 20?

D: someone want to finish for me?

Question: The Case of the
ATTIC SUICIDE

Motoring through Ashe City, Dr. Haledjian decided to drop in on his old friend, Carl Messner. At Messner’s home he was shocked to learn that three days earlier his friend had hanged himself.

”Carl Messner was in excellent health and spirits when I heard from him last month,” Haledjian told the sheriff. “I can’t believe he committed suicide.”

“He did – I investigated it myself,” replied the sheriff. “Here’s all there is to the case.

“Archie Carter, Mr. Messner’s manservant, was returning to the house late that night when he noticed a light in the attic. As Carter got out of his car, he saw through the open attic window Mr. Messner knotting a rope around his neck. The other end of the rope was tied to a rafter. Then Mr. Messner calmly kicked away the small stool he was standing on, and that was it.

“Carter found the house doors locked. He had forgotten his key so he ran to a neighbor and telephoned me. He reported to me exactly what I’ve told you,” said the sheriff.

“When I got out to the Messner house, I had to force the front door. Then Carter and I dashed up three floors to the attic. Mr. Messner was dead. The coroner has no doubt death was from hanging.

“The attic floor was clear except for the little stool that lay overturned by the door, and a broken clay jug that must have been hit by the stool,” concluded the sheriff.

“I’d like to go out to the house again,” said Haledjian. “From what you’ve told me of Carter’s story, he’s lying!”

How did Haledjian know?

Don't use google, figure it out yourself, but you might not be able ro find it on google anyway...

Saturday, February 25, 2006 at 7:04:51 PM

^^ Is it because if Carter had just got out of his car, logically it would be parked right by the side of the house, so from that angle it would be very unlikly to see Carl hang himself. Is that right?
