View Full Version : Win a Whip - From Kyle/Kyl
If you answer this
If a boat is sailing on the sea, and a rope ladder is hanging over the side, there is 1ft of space between each rung on the ladder. The tide rises at a rate of 6 inches every hour, how long will it be until 3 rungs are covered in water?
Only 1 guess each please ! =)
how many inches are in 1ft? 16? if so, then 8hours

How many rugs are there or how big is the boat ?
How many rugs are there or how big is the boat ?
yea sorry i missed out a bit of info, this is exact version of what it should be ;) i was basically right in first place
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?
And also naughty is incorrect ;)
bah why do i care? i dont play rs xD

They will never be covered cause as the tide goes up the boat will raise since it floats.

I guarantee," said the salesman in the pet shop, "that this purple parrot will repeat every word it hears." A customer bought the bird, but found that the parrot wouldn't speak a single word. Nevertheless, what the salesman said was true.
How could this be?

Ye so what, I said the riddle is crap cos I didn't get it, not trying to insult you, but I won the last one fair and square and you don't live up to your word. So I don't think I can trust whoever you are anymore.

Atroph got his whip, so i obviously aint just wasting peoples time and brb trying to find another riddle :l
Well why should anyone bother, they might say Tom is an idiot referring to some other Tom and you'll take offence and not give them what they're promised either. Why don't you just say you don't want to give the pure away rather than making up lame excuses.
sorry if its double post but meh
A man was found murdered on Sunday morning. His wife immediately called the police. The police questioned the wife and staff and got these alibis:
The Wife said she was sleeping.
The Cook was cooking breakfast.
The Gardener was picking vegetables.
The Maid was getting the mail.
The Butler was cleaning the closet.
The police instantly arrested the murdered. Who did it and how did they know?
Tis slightly harder i think, answer is bit :l but meh anyways yea, this prize is the pure with stats i said before
the maid cause theres no mail on sunday
If I get that right do I actually get the pure or are you gonna say I can't have it again.

Im not sure what your getting on about but it sounds alot like the one i tell my freinds..:
If a boat has a rope ladder over it and 3 foot steps are showing.. Then the water rises 14 ft (Each step is 3 ft) how meny steps are still showing.
And the answer is of course 3 because the boat floats :)
Edit: I know the answer. Its never as the boats floats but. Has someone already answered? im sorry if they have.

Never mind
Alkaz
28-08-2007, 08:37 AM
3 (runs on the ladder) x 12 (inchese in each run)= 36
36 (inches) / 6 (rising sea lvl ph) = 6
3 x 12 = 36
36 / 6 = 6
My answer = 6

28-08-2007, 08:49 AM
Lol @ me xD googling what ft was xD
answer = 6 houres

28-08-2007, 09:55 AM
It's erm around 7 hours as it doesnt only cover the space inbetween but it has to cover the actual rung. We don't know how thick the rung is so we can't answer the question.
