  1. On each pan of the tri-beam scale are 3 seemingly identical bells that are balanced with the other pan bells. A) Sort out the bells-3 light bells (L=1) and 3 heavy bells (H=3) from Normal bells (N=2) by using the scale . How many times will it take to identify their weights? B) When you got a desired outcome on the first weighing ,how can all the bells be sorted on the 2nd weighing? The scale works as follows: 1)Balanced : 3 weights on pans are equal ex. 6 : 6 : 6 2)One pan down : Only the heaviest ex. (5):3 :2 , (5):1:1 3)One pan up : 2 heavier weights are equal ex. (3):4 :4

  7. You just held up a bank on the corner of 6th & 7th avenue and walked to your get away car but upon entering the car, you've been spotted on the CCTV that alarmed the patrol cars on the 3 corners of the area that is bounded by high walls along the perimeter . If all the vehicles are as fast as each other and all streets and avenues are of same span of one-way roads, where is the best intersection for the get away car to be waiting for you in order to evade the police cars in hot pursuit?
