Riddles about honest and liars in Russian
Some country has two cities. In one of them live only people who always tell the truth, in the other - only those who always lie. They all go to visit each other, that is, in each of these two cities you can meet both an honest person and a liar. Let's say you are in one of these cities. How, by putting one single question to the first person you meet, determine which city you are in - the city of honest people or the city of liars?
("Are you in your city?" - the answer "yes" will always mean that you are in the city of honest people, no matter who you get)
There are two electric chairs in the prison. One of them is not connected to the network. The prisoner has the right to choose. But only the executioner knows about the one that is connected. The executioner can be asked any one simple question. It is known that the executioner is lying one day, the next he tells the truth (in turn). What question to ask someone who wants to live?
(Point to any of the chairs and ask: "What would you answer me yesterday if I asked if this chair is connected to the network?". If the answer is "No" - sit on the marked chair, and if "yes" - on another)
Three gods honored your person with their presence. Their names are "Honest", "Liar" and "Deaf".
A god named "Honest" always speaks the truth.
God named "Liar" always lies. God named "Deaf" answers all the questions in a completely random way.
Unfortunately, you don't know which one is which. Let's designate the three gods as "A", "B" and "C". You don't know which of "A", "B" and "C" is actually "Honest", who is "Liar", and who is "Deaf". The gods themselves know this (about themselves and others).
You have the opportunity to ask them three questions, each of which can only be answered with "yes" or "no". It is not necessary to ask each god one question; you can, if you like, ask all three questions to the same god, or something else. The questions are asked in order, that is, for example, depending on the answer to the first question, you can choose who to ask the second question and what it will be like. Gotta find out who's who
(1. We ask "A": ""B" lies more often than "C"?". If YES, then the next two questions are asked by "B", if not, then "C".
2. Are you deaf?
3. Is "A" deaf?
Correctly interpreting the answers, you can clearly say who is who) During the break, Anzhelika, Bernd, Wolfgang and Manuela remained in the class. One of them broke the glass. The teacher asked the students and received three responses from each.
Angelica:
1. I didn't break the window.
2. I sat in class and read.
3. Manuela knows who broke the window.
Bernd:
1. I didn't do it.
2. I haven't spoken from Manuela for a long time.
3. The window was broken by Wolfgang.
Wolfgang:
1. I'm not to blame.
2. The window was broken by Manuela.
3. Bernd is lying when he claims that I broke the window.
Manuela:
1. I didn't break the window.
2. Angelica broke the window.
3. Bernd knows that it's not my fault, because at the break we played together.
In addition, each of them confessed that out of three answers, two were sincere and one was wrong.
Who broke the window?
(Let's denote three statements by the first letters of the names of their authors and indices 1, 2, 3, which correspond to the numbers under which the statements are given in the task: A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, B1, B2, B3, M1, M2, M3.
Let's start with an analysis of Wolfgang's statements. Statement B1 and B3 assert the same thing, therefore they are either both sincere, or both are erroneous. But due to the condition of the assignment, they cannot both be wrong. Therefore, they are both sincere and B2's erroneous statement. Because C3 is true, B3's statement is false, which means that B1 and B2 are sincere. Since 2 is true, M3 is false. Therefore, the statements of M1 and M2 are sincere. But if M2 is true, then A1 is wrong, A2 and A3 are sincere. Therefore, the window was broken by Angelica)
You are in a maze. They wandered for a long time and, finally, exhausted, got into a room from which two doors were taken out: one to freedom, the other to inevitable death. There is a goalkeeper at every door. One always lies, and the other only tells the truth. You don't know which doors are which and who is who. What is one question you should ask to identify the right doors?
(You should go to any doors and ask her goalkeeper: "If I asked another goalkeeper if your doors lead to freedom, what would he say?" If you get the answer "Yes!" - feel free to go to other doors, if "No!", then exit through these doors)
Let's say you find yourself in a place where only two tribes live - a tribe of evil cannibals and a tribe of beautiful people. Moreover, cannibals also always tell a lie, and their neighbors, on the contrary, are impeccably honest people. Let's say that you are on a crossroads, where one road leads to one tribe, the other to another. Of course, you need to get to beautiful people. There is a man standing at the crossroads - you don't know if he is honest or a liar. What do you need to ask him to choose the path you need?
(Ask him: "Where are you from?". And go in the indicated direction)
The prisoner is given the right to go free if he copes with such a task: there are two doors in front of him: one of them leads to freedom, the other is the road to death. Two sentries are also sitting here, and one of them is either a "liar" or "truthful", and the second is a "cunning", that is, a person who tells the truth and lies strictly in turn (that is, either answers unpaired questions untruth, and on the pair - the truth, or vice versa - on the unpaired he tells the truth, and on the pairs he lies). Both sentries know which of the roads leads to freedom, but the prisoner does not know which of the guards is cunning. The prisoner has the right to ask two questions to one of the guards. How can he determine the road that leads to freedom?
(1) "Are you a sly one?" - the answer "no" will mean that this person will tell the truth to the second question. 2) Pointing at any doors: "Do these doors lead to freedom?")
One night, Sheriff Colt Remington met three cowboys sitting around a fire. The sheriff suspected that one of them was the notorious cattle rustler, Bob the Cattleman, while the other two looked like ordinary unemployed people. The sheriff was sure that these two, if interrogated, would tell the truth, and Bob the Cattleman would certainly lie.
When the sheriff spoke to the first cowboy, he, muttering something inarticulate, rushed to his heels. His friend spoke quickly:
- He said he was a cowboy, and it's true! We are both cowboys!
Then the third jumped to his feet and shouted, pointing his finger at the second:
- It is not true! He's lying!
Sheriff Remington, without hesitation, snapped the handcuffs on the hands of one of them.
- Well, got caught, Bob the Cattleman? Now you will have a lot of free time!
Which of the trio was arrested by the sheriff?
(The sheriff arrested the third cowboy. He realized that the second cowboy was telling the truth, otherwise both the first and second would have been liars, that is, they would have been cattle rustlers. But this could not be, because there was only one cowboy cattle rustler)
On her way to the Hatter's for the Crazy Tea Party, Alice came to a fork in the road. Fortunately, there were fabulous little men nearby - the brothers of Tweedledum and Tweedledum. Alice began to think:
- The walrus said that one of the roads from the fork leads to the Hatter's house, and the other - to the lair of the Bormoglot, where I absolutely would not want to go. The Walrus also said that you know the right way, but he warned that one of you always tells the truth, and the other always lies. In addition, he warned me that I could only ask you one question.
And Alice formulated her question in such a way that she would surely get the right answer, regardless of which of the brothers she asked.
Guess what question Alice asked to find out the right way to the Hatter's house
(Alice asked: "If I asked you yesterday which road leads to the Hatter's house, what would you answer me?"
The brother who always tells the truth would give the correct answer to this question. And someone who always lies would have to distort the answer he gave the day before. Therefore, lie again, and this time his answer would be correct. Bravo, Alice! Determine which of the following statements are true and which are false:
1. One statement on this list is false.
2. Two statements on this list are false.
3. Three statements on this list are false.
4. Four statements on this list are false.
5. Five statements on this list are false.
6. Six statements on this list are false.
7. Seven statements on this list are false.
8. Eight statements on this list are false.
9. Nine statements on this list are false.
10. Ten statements on this list are false.
(1 is false. So the other 9 are true. A contradiction.
2 is false. So the other 8 are true. Contradiction.
3 is false. So the other 7 are true. Contradiction.
4 is false. So the other 6 are true. Contradiction.
5 is false. So the other 5 are true. Contradiction.
6 is false. So the other 4 are true. Contradiction.
7 is false. So the other 3 are true. Contradiction.
8 is false. So the other 2 are true. Contradiction.
9 is false. So, there is 1 truth left - the truth is that 9 from the list contradict, 1 states that 9 contradict. There are 10 in total in the list. 9 are false, 1 is true. Therefore, 9 is true.
10 is false. This means that there is no truth and the statement contradicts itself. Contradiction)
Determine which of the following statements are true and which are false.
1. Two of the statements on this list are wrong, the others are right.
2. Three of the statements on this list are wrong, others are right.
3. At least one statement on this list is wrong.
4. At least one statement on this list is true.
5. All statements on this list are wrong.
(1, 3, 4 - true statements; 2, 5 - erroneous statements. The train of thought: the 5th cannot be true, because it will contradict itself, then the 3rd is true, and since the 3rd is true, then it is true and the 4th, if the 2nd is true, then it will contradict itself, which means the 2nd is erroneous, the 1st does not contradict itself, which means it is true)

There are two guards sitting right there, moreover, one of them is either a “nonsense”, or “truthful”, and the other is a “cunning”, that is, a person who speaks the truth and untruth strictly according to his will (that’s - the truth, but navpak - to tell the truth on unparen, but on the guy - bullshit).

On the road to stand like a man - you don’t know if you’re honest or a liar. What do you need to sleep in a new one, so that I will choose the way for you?
Vidpovid
(Ask in a new one: "Signs are you?". That go straight to the appointed person)
V'yaznitsa has two electric steels. One of them is not connected to the border. I have the right to choose. Ale about those connections, you know only cat. Katovі can ask one be-yak just food. It seems that one day it’s a breeze, the other day to tell the truth (by the devil). How to ask food for someone who wants to live?
Vidpovid
(Show me if there were any stіltsіv i zapitati: "And what would you have done to me, if I had energized, what connections to this stіlec to the yard?" - in other)

Which of the three did the sheriff arrest?
Vidpovid
(Having arrested the third cowboy, the sheriff realized that the other cowboy, having told the truth, otherwise the first and the other would have turned out to be liars, so that they would have been the swindlers of thinness. But such a buti could not, to that one cowboy was only one cowboy)

Artificial leather for touch emulation
15.04.2024
In a modern technology world where distance is becoming increasingly commonplace, maintaining connection and a sense of closeness is important. Recent developments in artificial skin by German scientists from Saarland University represent a new era in virtual interactions. German researchers from Saarland University have developed ultra-thin films that can transmit the sensation of touch over a distance. This cutting-edge technology provides new opportunities for virtual communication, especially for those who find themselves far from their loved ones. The ultra-thin films developed by the researchers, just 50 micrometers thick, can be integrated into textiles and worn like a second skin. These films act as sensors that recognize tactile signals from mom or dad, and as actuators that transmit these movements to the baby. Parents' touch to the fabric activates sensors that react to pressure and deform the ultra-thin film. This ... >>

The attractiveness of caring men
14.04.2024
The stereotype that women prefer "bad boys" has long been widespread. However, recent research conducted by British scientists from Monash University offers a new perspective on this issue. They looked at how women responded to men's emotional responsibility and willingness to help others. The study's findings could change our understanding of what makes men attractive to women. A study conducted by scientists from Monash University leads to new findings about men's attractiveness to women. In the experiment, women were shown photographs of men with brief stories about their behavior in various situations, including their reaction to an encounter with a homeless person. Some of the men ignored the homeless man, while others helped him, such as buying him food. A study found that men who showed empathy and kindness were more attractive to women compared to men who showed empathy and kindness. ... >>

Random news from the Archive Google robot to replace service dog
22.09.2015
The US Marine Corps in Virginia is testing a four-legged robot designed to replace service dogs in the near future. The Spot device was created by Boston Dynamics, which was acquired by Google in 2013.
Spot is powered by an electric motor, which, compared to the gasoline engine used in other robots, is quieter and does not emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. The device is controlled wirelessly using a controller at a distance of up to 500 meters and maneuvers well in various types of terrain.
According to experts conducting the test, robots like Spot can be useful to the Marines in various situations, for example, to help in search or loading. The device has been tested in various types of terrain, including forest and urban environments.
Spot is the quietest and lightest four-legged robot ever tested by the USMC. It weighs 72 kg and can be controlled wirelessly with a controller connected to a laptop. In this case, the operator does not need to be in the line of sight - the robot works at a distance of up to 500 meters.
