Two planes take off at the same exact moment. They are
flying across the Atlantic. One leaves New York and is
flying to Paris at 500 miles per hour. The other leaves
Paris and is flying to New York at only 450 miles per hour (
because of a strong head wind ).

Which one will be closer to Paris when they meet?

Answer #3 is partially right. By implying they are in the same place, it technically cannot be the EXACT same place, or they'd have crashed. For this reason you have to take into consideration the altitude the two aircrafts are flying at: the closer to the ground, the closer to the city.
However, the wind and the route are irrelevant because they would find themselves at the same distance all the same. So think with your brain, not with your books. =) Interesting degree though.

Answer / captain correcto

As an Aviation Technology Graduate, I can confirm that there are a number of factors which would need to be considered in order to identify the correct solution.

Firstly, the altitude of both aircraft is required.

Secondly, the wind strength and direction is required

thirdly, (and perhaps the most pedantic), the exact route to be taken is required -this is not the same for all aircraft and operators!

100 Gold Coins Five pirates have obtained 100 gold coins and have to divide up the loot. The pirates are all extremely intelligent, treacherous and selfish (especially the captain). The captain always proposes a distribution of the loot. All pirates vote on the proposal, and if half the crew or more go "Aye", the loot is divided as proposed, as no pirate would be willing to take on the captain without superior force on their side. If the captain fails to obtain support of at least half his crew (which includes himself), he faces a mutiny, and all pirates will turn against him and make him walk the plank. The pirates start over again with the next senior pirate as captain. What is the maximum number of coins the captain can keep without risking his life?
