Brain Teaser pt2

A man in a restaurant asked a waiter for a juice glass, a dinner plate, water, a match, and a lemon wedge… The man poured enough water onto the plate to cover it.
“If you can get the water on the plate into this glass without touching or moving this plate, I will give you $100,” the man said… “You can use the match and lemon to do this.”
A few minutes later, the waiter walked away with $100 in his pocket… How did the waiter get the water into the glass?

Re: Brain Teaser pt2

I helped him :smooth:

Re: Brain Teaser pt2

If you cannot move or touch the plate maybe you can move the glass to the plate and brush the water into it using the lemon slice with the matchstick....slightly modified reply.

Re: Brain Teaser pt2

Oh wait, we did an experiment on this when we were in I don’t know what grade :konfused:

Take the match, stuck it in the lemon wedge so that is stands up. Put the lemon in the middle of the place. Light the match and then put the glass on the match and cover it. Oxygen will create a vaccume and the water will be sucked in into the glass when you have the match covered.

Re: Brain Teaser pt2

Suchi, we did the experiment but I used to do it with a piece of paper. Put it in the plate with water in it. Set the paper on fire and cover it with the glass.

I confirmed my answer though :halo:

Re: Brain Teaser pt2

LOL… its ok… ill test your knowledge… i got another one. Surely you didnt do this in school for an experiment. :hoonh:

On a beautiful spring day in the park, there were five female cats walking together and gossiping about their humans. Up ahead, there were five males walking together bragging about their conquests. When the two groups met, there were five cupids flying through the air. Next thing ya know, there were five couples walking away in separate directions. The couples began talking and soon found that they had amazing things in common. Well, long story short, we all know what happens to cats that fall in love in the springtime, oh my what a racket! Can you figure out who the couples were, what treats they liked, what their favorite activity was and how many kittens each had in their litter?

Male: Punkin, Batman, Billy, Jake, Dibii
Female: Pepper, Sally, Ruby, Spot, Starbuck
Snack: Chicken, Mice, Tuna, Ice Cream, Chips
Activity: Laser, String, Sleep, Beat Up, Ball

in Litter: 1,3,5,7,9

  1. The five males were: Jake, the one that liked tuna fish & had five kittens, the one that liked Spot, the one that liked to beat up other cats, and the one that loved ice cream.

  2. The five females were: Starbuck, the one that had nine kittens, the one that liked to eat chicken & chase a ball, the one that liked to sleep, and the one that liked Punkin.

  3. Dibii ( who had three kittens) liked to chase the laser light but not mice. On the other hand, Sally loved to chase mice but not string.

  4. Batman didn’t have a thing for Sally and he didn’t have seven kittens. Billy, who thought of himself as very big & tough, had the most kittens & wasn’t about to chase some stupid string around - what a waste of time!

  5. Ruby loved to cuddle up to her male for a long afternoon nap in the sun but hated it when he ate his chips in bed. That may be the reason they didn’t have the most kittens (they didn’t have the least either).

  6. Pepper & Punkin didn’t have one kitten but they did like tuna fish.

Light the match, stick it on lemon wedge and then put the wedge on the plate. Cover the lemon wedge with the glass so that there's an air tight seal but water can enter the glass. As the match consumes the air inside the glass, the water will rise into the glass.
