Question

There is a room. The room has 4 light bulbs. the light switches are outside the room. Without going into the room and back out, find which light switch goes to each bulb where the switches are labeled A, B, C, and D. Sorry if it's too easy, I just had to post it.

spoiler!!!!! the answer is...

turn on light bulbs A and B, wait for 5 minutes (or longer), and then turn A off, and D on. Quickly get inside. A and C are off, and B and D are on.

Now, because you left light bulbs on for 5 minutes (or longer), some are hotter than others... or to be specific, A is hot, and B is hot. these were left on for 5 min.+. Soooooo... A is the light turned off and hot, B is turned on and hot, C is turned off and colder, and D is the one turned on and colder.

This one is soooo cool because people think visual when you have to think scientifically... or tangible, or something.

OOPS... I had no idea it was already on Brainden... and thanks.

Make sure you perform searches before posting (see tips for searching in the sticky in the red box titled "Important: READ BEFORE POSTING").

In this case, try searching for "bulbs +switches".
