Riddle:  A pipe, a carrot, and a couple sticks are lying together in a field. Why?

Does it seem strange to you that these unrelated things are lying together on the floor? As strange as it may be, there must be a logical reason for this. After all, nobody leaves those things together for no reason, right?

 

Think of something that uses a pipe, a carrot, and a couple sticks together. It would be more correct to say that these are part of something, rather than using the word “use”. This thing is of course nothing more than a snowman. When the snowman melted, the pipe, carrot and sticks fell to the ground.

Answer:  They’re what is left of a melted snowman.

Riddle:  A man grabbed a woman’s ring and pulled on it, then dropped it. How did this save her life?

This is a very tricky riddle! The first ring that comes to mind for everyone who reads the riddle is usually the jewellery ring.  Hence, it can be difficult to establish the link between saving a life and the ring. In this case, instead of treating this ring as a jewellery, we should consider another possibility.

 

The most logical answer that can be given with these in mind is that they were skydiving, and she was unconscious. He pulled the ripcord ring for her, and the parachute opened. Therefore, he saved her life by pulling the ring.

Answer:  They were skydiving, and she was unconscious. He pulled the ripcord ring for her, and the parachute opened.

Riddle:  If Harry’s father is Tommy’s son, what relation is Harry to Tom?

It’s quite easy to find the answer to this riddle! If you know about kinship relationships at a basic level, it will not take you long to understand this riddle.  In the riddle, we have two characters, Harry and Tom.

 

If Harry’s father is also Tommy’s son, Tommy is the father of Harry’s father. You all know that the father of your father is your grandfather. In this case, since Tommy is the father of Harry’s father, he is also the grandfather. In other words, Tommy is the grandfather of Harry.

The answer:  Tommy is Harry’s grandfather.

Riddle:  If boiling water is poured into a thick drinking glass as well as a very thin wine glass, of the two, which is more likely to crack?

When you read the riddle, you may get the idea that thin glass will break sooner. However, the answer is not what you think. The thick glass is more likely to crack since glass is a poor conductor of heat.

 

In a thin glass, the heat passes more quickly from the glass into the surrounding air, causing the glass to expand equally. When hot water is poured into a thick glass, the inner surface expands, but the outer surface does not. It is this extreme stress on the glass that causes it to crack.

The answer:  The thick glass is more likely to crack since glass is a poor conductor of heat. In a thin glass, the heat passes more quickly from the glass into the surrounding air, causing the glass to expand equally. When hot water is poured into a thick glass, the inner surface expands, but the outer surface does not. It is this extreme stress on the glass that causes it to crack.

Riddle: The higher I climb, the hotter I engage, I can not escape my crystal cage. What am I?

This riddle might seem difficult to you at first but do not worry, you may find the answer easily after thinking about it or even if you cannot find you will understand its logic after you see the answer of it.

Since this thing engages the hotter when climbs higher, and it cannot escape its crystal cage, there are not many options what it could be. Thermometers has a liquid in them, and that liquid elevates when the room gets higher and this liquid also kept in a glass cage like system to prevent people from poising because of it. Therefore, the answer of this riddle is mercury in a thermometer.

The answer is:  Mercury in a thermometer.
