C is correct!

ok try this one;

if you drop a steel ball weighing five pounds from a height of 45 inches, will it fall more rapidly through water at 20 degrees Fahrenheit or water at 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

(a) The ball will fall more rapidly through water 20 degrees Fahrenheit
(b) The ball will fall more rapidly through water 40 degrees Fahrenheit
(c) Both would fall at the same rate

Re: Riddle me this
 

B. Water's a solid at 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

Well.. technically.. :p

Doesn't it depend on the atmospheric pressure? Water won't freeze at certain pressures, even if it's at 20 degrees. *Nerdy AP Chem moment of the day*

So technically couldn't the answer be both? Hehe. Ok I'll shut up now :p

Re: Riddle me this
 

correct!

This thing all things devours:
Birds, beasts, trees, flowers;
Gnaws iron, bites steel:
Grinds hard stones to meal;
Slays king, ruins town,
And beats high mountain down.

Extra credit if you know where it's from.

I got one:

A woman stayed up late one night reading a book. When she finished she went up stairs, turned out the lights, and went to bed. When she woke up the next day, she found out that a boat ran ashore and everyone on the boat died. Even though she didn't know anyone abord, she committed suicide. Why?

Re: Riddle me this
 

She lived in a lighthouse.

Re: Riddle me this
 

yup

Re: Riddle me this
 

I didn't notice it, actually.

My maker never wants me, my buyer never uses me, my user never sees me. What am I?
