Default ITT we ask easy riddles/questions that people screw up

By "easy riddles/questions that people screw up" I mean questions that are meant to be answered immediately -- first impulse answers -- such that people will still tend to screw them up.

I have a baseball and a bat totaling $1.10 in cost. The bat costs $1 more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?

$0.05 (fixed)

ps: Maybe I post something if I remember any riddle.

pps: Yeah, this one is tricky for someone hasty. Due to the value, people seem to be "forced" to answer $0.10. Good one, Rubix.

$0.05

You have 2 coins totaling 30 cents in value. One is not a nickel. What are the two coins?

Obligatory:

May I ask, why?

Idk, just because it's interesting.

A lot of people immediately think "10 cents" for the first one, just like most people will answer "milk" and "toast" instead of "water" and "bread" to yours.

From a forwarded email:
1. Johnny's mother had three children. The first child was named April. The second child was named May. What was the third child's name?

2. Before Mt. Everest was discovered, what was the highest mountain in the world?

3. If you were running a race, and you passed the person in 2nd place, what place would you be in now?

4. If a farmer has 5 haystacks in one field and 4 haystacks in the other field, how many haystacks would he have if he combined them all in another field?
