I am a normal creature, but I have five hands. I can even have more but even then I will be considered normal.
Who am I?
I am a person wearing an analogue watch. Thus I have two hands of my own and my watch has three more hands i.e. hour, minute and second hand. I can wear a watch that have a millisecond hand as well.
Imagine that you have a box which have two cogwheels – one big with 24 teeth and one small with 8 teeth. The big one is firmly attached to the center of the box which means it does not turn or move while the small one rotates around the big one.
How many times do you think that the smaller wheel will turn compared to the box when it turns once around the big one?
Three times is the most common answer however that is incorrect.
The small cogwheel will turn around four times.
You might already have deciphered that while turning against each other, the small wheel will turn three times (3*8) as the big wheel turns once (24 teeth). Now what we require is the big wheel to stop and the small one to turn around the big one. In this process, the small one will make another full turn on the way around the big one. Thus in total, it will make four turns.
A train leaves from point A for point B at 80 mph. After half an hour, another train leaves from point B for point A at 60 mph.
Which of the trains will be further from point A when they meet ?
When the trains meet, they will be approximately be equally distant from point A. Of course if you get into precise details, the train that left from point A will be closer to A by its own length as they are coming from different directions.
In a modern art gallery, an artist has numerous modern art paintings created by him. He hangs different painting on the space provided to him periodically. When the clock hit 11 am, he hung the painting number 30. When it struck 4 pm, he hung the painting number 240 and when it struck 7:30 pm, he hung painting number 315.
Can you determine, which painting number will he hang when the time is 9:20 pm ?
He will hang painting number 200 at that time. Every time he hangs the painting, the number of it corresponds with the angle between the minute and hour hand of the clocks.

A man doing his regular job accidentally tears his suit. He dies after three minutes.
Why?
The possible situation can be that the man is a Deep Sea Diver. They wear a pressurized suit for diving. If the suit tears down somehow, the breathing apparatus can keep the person alive till the body can handle the intense water pressure.
Indiana Jones has stolen two solid gold bars from a treasure. But now, the village people are behind him. While running away from them, he comes across a bridge formed by a single rope. Now he knows that he can cross the bridge on that rope. But there is a signboard which reads that the rope can carry a maximum weight of 130 pounds only.
Now, the gold bar weighs 20 pounds each and he weighs 100 pounds. How will he cross the bridge now given that he can't leave the gold bar behind and he don't have enough time to return back and take them one by one ?
If you know about the weighing systems, you must be knowing that gold is weighed in Troy system while otherwise normally, the weight is measured using the imperial system.
In Troy system, 12 ounces = 1 pound.
In imperial system, 16 ounces = 1 pound
Thus, 40 pounds of gold weighed in Troy system will be only 30 pounds in the imperial system of weighing. The weight limit for the rope must be in imperial system only as that is the standard weighing system.
Thus the total weight = 100 + 30 = 130 pounds and all he will do is simply walk it carrying both the gold bars.
