01. What is greater than God, more evil than the devil, the poor have it, the rich need it, and if you eat it, you’ll die?
02. Who makes it, has no need of it. Who buys it, has no use for it. Who uses it can neither see nor feel it. What is it?
03. What can travel around the world while staying in a corner?
04. There was a green house. Inside the green house there was a white house. Inside the white house there was a red house. Inside the red house there were lots of babies. What is it?
05. What call for help, when written in capital letters, is the same forwards, backwards and upside down?
06. One family wants to get through a tunnel. Dad can make it in 1 minute, mom in 2 minutes, son in 4 and daughter in 5 minutes. No more than 2 persons can go through the tunnel at one time, moving at the speed of the slower one. Can they all make it to the other side if they have a torch that lasts only 12 minutes and they are afraid of the dark?
07. Before Mount Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?
08. A petri dish hosts a healthy colony of bacteria. Once a minute every bacterium divides into two. The colony was founded by a single cell at noon. At exactly 12:43 (43 minutes later) the petri dish was half full. At what time will the dish be completely full?
09. Which word in the dictionary is spelled incorrectly?
10. Suppose you are a boatman and you want to carry 3 things across the river, from bank A to bank B. The three are: a tiger, a goat and a bail (bundle) of grass. Conditions:
-You can carry only one thing at a time in each direction.
-Tiger will not eat you. But as we know, tiger will eat goat or goat will eat grass if left alone on a bank.
-You have to complete the transfer in a minimum number of trips.
Show the number of trips with your logic.
