Congratulations Kazenge!. Tomorrow I will post the answer to my riddle.
In the early '60s NASA was sending electronic gear into outer space
on unmanned missions. They'd already sent a guy into space but they
wanted to make sure that if they were going to send people up for
longer flights, that they had a chance of surviving. They were
sending this electronic gear up to test a variety of things like
radiation exposure, and so on. The equipment kept failing, but they couldn't figure out why. Finally, someone determined that the circuits were overheating, so they installed a fan to cool off the devices.
But the problems persisted. Why?

I'd guess that since it's completely sealed and there's no air flow, so the fan can't work, and it still overheats *shrugs*

What do the following men have in common? Ulysses S. Grant, Rudyard Kipling, Woodrow Wilson, Grover Cleveland, and Calvin Coolidge. Now, I know they're dead. It's something else. I will answer it on Monday if nobody gets it.

They were all known by their middle names.
There are two telephone poles. Each one is 100-feet tall. They are parallel-and an unknown distance apart. We're going to attach a 150-foot rope from the very top of one of the poles, to the top of the other. This rope will, of course, droop down somewhat. So, we've got these two 100-foot poles, and a 150-foot rope. The rope is between the two poles, and it's going to droop down, making an arc. The question is, what must be the distance between the two poles, so that the lowest point is 25-feet above the ground?

The lowest point of what? What rope arc? Or the poles?

the lowest point of the rope arc. The poles are positioned on the ground.

Okay, it's imposible for the rope to be 25 feet from the ground unless the poles are right next to eachother. It was a trick question.
Usually when the subject of a sentence is compound, and the components are connected by "and," the verb takes the plural form. For example, we say, "Bob and his wife ARE planning to drive to Florida"... not, "Bob and his wife IS planning to drive to Florida." Likewise, we say, "The vase and the book ARE on the table," not, "The vase and the book IS on the table." But, can you think of a situation where the components of a compound subject are connected by "and," yet the form of the verb must be singular, and not plural?

If the rope is 150 ft, half of that is 75. Subtract that from 100 and you get 25. So the pole cannot have any distance between them. And as for your newer riddle...no idea.
