None. The other stone will not be heavy enough to pull down the see-saw. A and B are outta. Harms way. D might just. Get lucky, if my calculations are all right. E is not inany kind of danger whatsoever.

i think who dies depends on the weight of both stones....if the stone at E is heavier, D surely dies.if not, no one dies.

D has the highest probability of death followed by C.

Others are safe. The rolling stone is lighter than the stationary stone so it cannot hurl the stationary stone against A or B...

E is the pusher.

PUSH ! PUSH !! PUSH !!!...

the tipped stone will roll with force onto the other side of the seesaw thereby hurling the stationary stone to person 'E' - who dies.

Based on the picture and logic:

A and B are safe.

Weight of the chipped rocked is less that the rock on the platform so it will only rock it a bit without touching C. That makes C safe.

The chipped/ hollow portion of the chipped rock will be on D's head at that point when it rolls down so D is also safe.

E is safe because based on the arrangement, the heavy rock will remain on the platform because it is heavier than the chipped one.

*I hope I make sense*

A dies
Re: Puzzle For The Smart People On Nairaland Only (see Picx) by buggaboo: 11:06pm On Nov 04, 2014
The stone rolls down with momentum.
D is safe as his head fits into the groove in the stone as it rolls past him.
C is safe cos the rolling stone is not heavy enough to depress the ledge.

The rolling stone bounces off the little projection on the ledge which sends it flying towards the heavy stone.
The heavy stone then deflects it towards the poor guy A.

Na so A take die be that

Re: Puzzle For The Smart People On Nairaland Only (see Picx) by buggaboo: 11:53pm On Nov 04, 2014
Looking at it again, I think the stone will hang between A and B.
No one dies.
