Take two coins of the same size. Hold down the first coin firmly on the table with a finger. Now, roll the 2nd coin around the stationery coin until one full loop around the coin is made. Picturing this in your head, how many revolutions would you have expected the 2nd coin to make?

I bet I could probably perform some crafty finger manipulation to get at least one

one (or perhaps slightly more if you screw it up)

Two buckets are filled to the brim with water. If a brick is put in one of the buckets... which bucket is heavier?

The one with the brick. Brick has higher density than water.

Wrong.

Assuming the buckets were identical to begin with, both buckets would weigh the same even after picking the brick in one of them, considering the contents of the bucket doesn't influence the bucket's weight.

Your reasoning is wrong.

[TheSaxRunner05]

Reuben's reasoning sounds right to me, just seems like his technicality doesn't line up with whatever one you are thinking of =p

[One Winged Angel]

displacement lol

also you have to assume that the stone the brick is made from is of the same density as water

Winner finally, its just Archimedes' Principle.

[TheSaxRunner05]

The brick still weighs more than the water it displaces, there has to be another technicality

Edit:// So you were thinking about displacement all along. The brick is denser than the amount of water it displaced though

Oh derp did i say brick... i meant a floating piece of wood (derp buoyant force)

Why do people go to bed?

Time for me to get some rest.

I'll leave with one more -

Divide 30 by 1/2 then add 10, what do you get?
