My Dad's guess is a casket or an obituary, or something pertaining to death. I is just a guess though.

Correct; it's a coffin.

I know the answer to your one but I looked it up. Some of it doesn't really fit with the answer; the key word is 'serve'.

Well; ping-pong balls, specifically but close enough.

That one didn't really match the difficulty of your others

Maybe because it wasn't mine

At room temperature, how much mercury does it take to submerge a 25 cm cubed ball bearing in a 500 cm cubed container?

Does this involve an equation?

The word to my riddle has seven letters. Preceded God. Greater than God. More evil than the Devil. All poor people have it. Wealthy people need it. If you eat it, you will die.

loldudex2 · « **Reply #86 on:** October 24, 2011, 07:44:35 PM »

The answer is nothing.

austin · « **Reply #87 on:** October 24, 2011, 07:49:42 PM »

You are very correct.

A dead man is found in a locked room, hanging from the ceiling 4 ft. above the floor. The room is completely empty, except for a puddle of water below him. How did he die?

John B. · « **Reply #89 on:** October 24, 2011, 08:44:57 PM »

he hanged himself standing on a 4ft block of ice.

No but it's more general knowledge than a riddle, I guess. Prior knowledge is required. You can look up the knowledge if you work out what's odd about it.

The volume of a container wouldn't be of any use if you were trying to calculate the volume of liquid that would submerge and object, you'd need to know the shape and dimensions of the container. And since I'm quite sure it wouldn't have been a maths problem anyway, I propose the following:

Mercury is an incredibly dense liquid, depending on what the ball bearing is made of (steel I would guess), it might be less dense than the mercury and thus float. I'm not sure if that's the answer, but I can't think of anything else.

Kanped · « **Reply #93 on:** October 25, 2011, 12:05:39 PM »

Nicely done, Puffy; it's impossible, it would float.

You are at a funeral. You see a man crying in the corner. You go up to the man and ask what connection he had to the woman who passed. He says: "Brothers and sisters I have none. But her father is my father's son." What connection does the man have with the woman who died?

Kanped · « **Reply #95 on:** October 25, 2011, 01:27:15 PM »

He's her father

There are 2 doors. One leads to paradise, the other to torment. A guard stands at each door. The guard guarding paradise always tells the truth, the one guarding torment always lies. You must enter one of the doors and you cannot leave thereafter. How can you make sure you get into paradise?

Can't figure out Kanped's. Here's two new ones, simple if you know what to look for:

1) Which weighs less: a pound of feathers, a pound of bricks, or a pound of gold?

2) You're hired at the US Mint, in charge of procuring supplies for making money. Your first assignment: purchase enough materials to print $1,000,000 in $1 bills. The first supplier on the list of suppliers that you call is the sales manager of a paper factory which uses recycled wood to make new paper and cardboard products. How much of her paper will you need?

Joshua Robinson · « **Reply #98 on:** December 08, 2011, 06:04:36 AM »

1) they all weigh a pound.

2) 1,000,000 pieces of $1 shaped paper

Kanped · « **Reply #99 on:** December 08, 2011, 07:41:04 AM »

You wouldn't need any paper. $1 bills are printed on linen.
