confections like so: ice cream, 32-cents; lollipop, 34-cents; licorice,

price the chocolate, so you must add the price yourself. How much does it cost?
3) What's the answer to this old riddle? "What doth man love more than life,

woman." Is she?
9) The Earth rotates on its axis and revolves (around the Sun). Does the Sun

7|1|Questions/answers for Level FOUR....|inthesticks|inthesticks@windstream.net|06:20:32|06/08/2011|
Okay, here are the correct answers for the questions from Level FOUR:
1) Which weighs more: an ounce of water or an ounce of lead? -- The water
weighs a bit more because it is measured by volume, while lead is measured by
weight. If you set a cup with a fluid ounce of water on a balance scale across
from an ounce of lead in an identical cup, the scale will tip toward the water.
2) You are a new employee at a candy store. The owner has priced some of her
confections like so: ice cream, 32-cents; lollipop, 34-cents; licorice,
32-cents; jawbreaker, 42-cents; gum, 13-cents; and chocolate. She forgot to
price the chocolate, so you must add the price yourself. How much does it cost?
-- Vowels cost 3-cents and consonants cost 5-cents, so chocolate costs 37-cents.
3) What's the answer to this old riddle? "What doth man love more than life,
hate more than death or mortal strife? 'Tis that which contented men desire,
the poor posess and the rich require, the miser spends, the spendthrift saves,
and all men carry to their graves." -- Nothing
4) If an inch of rain falls on an acre of ground, how many gallons of water
will have fallen (approximately)? -- Ever heard of an acre-foot? It refers to
the volume of water that will cover one acre to the depth of one foot. One
twelfth of an acre-foot is an acre-inch; 3630 cubic feet. With 0.133680556
cubic feet in a gallon, this translates into roughly 27,000 gallons of water.
5) Four words in the English language end with -dous. Three of them are:
horrendous, stupendous, and tremendous. What is the fourth? -- hazardous
6) What is the significance of these words in this particular order: carts,
alarm, radio, trick, smoke? -- List these words in a column, and they will read
the same both across and down.
7) If you remove six letters from the following, a common word is left:
BSAINXLEATNTEARS. What is it? -- Remove the letters "s-i-x-l-e-t-t-e-r-s" and
"b-a-n-a-n-a" remains.
8) A woman is vacationing on the Isle of Beguile, where natives always lie and
visitors always tell the truth. Three men greet her as they pass. The blond
fellow says, "We are all natives." The guy with brown hair says, "Only one of
us is a visitor." And the man with red hair states, "You are a beautiful
woman." Is she? -- The blond fellow said, "We are all natives," so he can't be
a visitor -- because visitors tell the truth, and visitors are not natives. So
he's a native. And because natives lie, at least one of the men must be a
visitor. The guy with brown hair said, "Only one of us is a visitor." So he
cannot be a native because if he were, the red-haired man would be a visitor (we
already know that the blond fellow is a native and at least one of the men is a
visitor), and natives lie: The guy with brown hair would not say, "Only one of
us is a visitor," which would be true. So he's a visitor. Because visitors
tell the truth, and this guy said, "Only one of us is a visitor," we now know
that the man with red hair is a native. Which means that the woman is not
beautiful, but at least she's vacationing in the right place.
9) The Earth rotates on its axis and revolves (around the Sun). Does the Sun
do the same? If so, around what does it revolve? -- The Sun does indeed rotate
on its axis. But as the Sun is a ball of gas, it doesn't turn rigidly like a
solid planet. The equator rotates every 25 days or so, and the polar regions
take some 31 days. Plus, the whole fiery ball revolves around the center of the
Milky Way galaxy.
10) Can you remove one letter from the word "restarted" to leave another word,
then repeat the process until just one letter remains? -- Yes. Restarted,
restated, restate, estate, state, sate, sat, at, a.
===============================================
Congratulations to: sunriver -- the only person who answered all questions correctly! Woot! Woot! The first question is the one that stumped most people. And question #9...many of you forgot to answer the two-part question about the Sun and it's rotation.
I am waiting to clear up a problem with one player. Otherwise, the RAOK is now over. I will tabulate the scores and will post the winners today hopefully. Until then.....
