puzzle your brains out
Four persons need to cross a rope bridge at night. The bridge is not very strong and some of the rungs are missing. Therefore at most the bridge can carry the weight of two persons crossing at a time and they would have to carry a flashlight so as not to miss a step. It would take each of the four persons different times to cross the bridge (one way): 5, 10, 20 and 25 minutes resepctively. When two persons are crossing together the slowest person dictates the pace. The group has only one flashlight and the batteries in the flashlight will only last 60 minutes. How will all 4 persons safely cross the bridge?

There are 3 black hats and 2 white hats in a box. Three men (we will call them A, B, & C) each reach into the box and place one of the hats on his own head. They cannot see what color hat they have chosen. The men are situated in a way that A can see the hats on B & C's heads, B can only see the hat on C's head and C cannot see any hats. When A is asked if he knows the color of the hat he is wearing, he says no. When B is asked if he knows the color of the hat he is wearing he says no. When C is asked if he knows the color of the hat he is wearing he says yes and he is correct. What color hat and how can this be?

In the basement there are 3 light switches in the "off position". Each switch controls 1 of 3 light bulbs on the floor above. You may move any of the switches but you may only go up stairs one time. How can you determine which switch controls each light bulb?
