Rice is correct.

All of us remember from our high school or middle school physics, that the Moon has a fraction of the Earth's gravity. In fact, we were all told that it's a sixth the gravity of the Earth. For example, if you had a bathroom scale, and you put your 600-pound Bengal tiger on this bathroom scale, and then transport the tiger and the bathroom scale to the Moon, the Bengal tiger would weigh 100 pounds. Here's the question. Is there anything you can think of that, if measured in the same way, would weigh more on the Moon than it does on the Earth?
Note there may be more than one answer.

The key words are "if measured in the same manner."

If an object that, on Earth, weighed just more than the maximum for the bathroom scale, was transported to the moon, its weight would be a sixth of its normal weight. The bathroom scale would then lower past zero, and equal a weight more than the object normally would on a bathroom scale on Earth, because bathroom scales are poor means of measuring weight and only go up to a certain number before passing over zero again.

This is far fetched, but it is the only thing I can think of.

I wish I had a bengal tiger. Who would need a scale with that thing around, espeically weighing 600 lbs. No one would mess with you hahaha.

First, drill a hole is the wall seper... just kidding.

Actually, turn on switches one and two. Wait for a while and then turn off switch one. Go to the lightbulb room. The bulb for switch two will be on, The bulb for switch one will be warm, and the bulb for switch three will be cold.

But if they are incandescent or fluorescent, it does.

Correct. This is because the moon has no atmosphere.

This next puzzler is mathematical in nature. Imagine two numbers, such that their product is equal to their sum. I'll give you two numbers: 5 and 1 and 1/4. You add them, and you get 6 and 1/4. You multiply them, and you also get 6 and 1/4. Both numbers have to be the same. For example, let's take 3/7ths as the number. 3/7ths and 3/7ths add up to 6/7. But, unfortunately, they multiply to 9/49ths. But if it worked, then, well, that would be the kind of answer I'm looking for. Any number is fair game. Fractions, irrational numbers, if it works, you win.

Is there such a number that if you multiply it by itself the product is equal to adding it to itself?

If so, what are those numbers?

Of course zeros are not allowed, because everybody knows zero plus zero is equal to zero times zero. Zero is disqualified.

Lol white. It's a polar bear.
