Each takes exactly 60 minutes to burn.
Burning rope problem 45 minutes.
You have two ropes.
How can you measure 45 minutes.
Burning rope puzzle measure 45 minutes.
This burning rope problem is a classic logic puzzle.
How do you measure out exactly 45 minutes.
How can you measure a period of 45 minutes.
You have two ropes that each take an hour to burn but burn at inconsistent rates.
Burn rope 1 from both end and at same time burn rope 2 from one end.
In addition each rope burns inconsistently.
They are made of different material so even though they take the same amount of time to burn they burn at separate rates.
When rope 1 finishes burning it will be exactly 30 minutes.
However the ropes do not burn at constant rates there are spots.
It will burn up in 15 minutes.
Total time elapsed since starting the ropes on fire.
It will burn up in 15 minutes.
Each takes exactly 60 minutes to burn.
Burning rope problem a man has two ropes of varying thickness those two ropes are not identical they aren t the same density nor the same length nor the same width.
How can he measure 45 mins using only these two ropes.
You have two ropes that each take an hour to burn but burn at inconsistent rates.
You have two ropes coated in an oil to help them burn.
If you light one end of the rope it will take one hour to burn to the other end.
A logic brain teaser.
You can light one or both ropes at one or both ends at the same time.
Light both ends of rope a and one end of rope b.
He actually wants to measure 45 mins.
Each rope burns in 60 minutes.
After 30 minutes rope a will be completely burned up and there will be 30 minutes of rope b left.
Each rope will take exactly 1 hour to burn all the way through.
You have two ropes and a lighter.
Total time elapsed since starting.
Light the other end of rope b.
You have 2 ropes.
This burning rope problem is a classic logic puzzle.
They don t necessarily burn at a uniform rate.
They are made of different material so even though they take the same amount of time to burn they burn at separate rates.
Light the other end of rope b.
How can you measure 45 minutes.
He can t cut the one rope in half because the ropes are non homogeneous and he can t be sure how long it will burn.
He will burn one of the rope at both the ends and the second rope at one end.
After 30 minutes rope a will be completely burned up and there will be 30 minutes of rope b left.
