5.Ryuichi Sakamoto
6.Jane Taylor
7.Harvest, Neil Young
8.Solid sphere will sink or free fall thingy
9.Sharon http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif
10. Not a bloody clue

Oh and Fosters, if this sort of thing is just "stuff in your head", who are you to criticise my taste in muzac http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

10. (guess) Fatal Attraction

1. What's Spock's dad called (star trek)?
Saarek
2. What's Angus' surname in The Gap Series books?
Angus Thermopyle
3. Which album and by who did the following lyric come from?
"I came back as a bag of groceries accidentally taken of the shelf before the date stamped on my side"
They might be giants, flood
4. What film is Roy Batty a character in?
bladerunner
5. Who composed the main piece of theme music for the film Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence?
ryuichi sakamoto
6. Who composed twinkle twinkle little star?
Mozart!
7. Name the album and artist where the song "A man needs a maid" appears
Harvest, neil young
8. If you have 2 spheres of equal weight and size, but one is hollow, how do you work out which is which?
roll them, hollow one will roll furthest
dropping them is no use, they're the same weight.
although not specified, floating might not work.
I was expecting some smart alec to say cut them in half!!
9. Who was the woman that Steve sh@gged in eastenders last night (not Mel and I don't know the answer to this one)?
10. An easy one, which film?
Him: I bake!
Her: You bake?!
Him: You like chocolate
Her: I'm allergic
Him: How about carrot cake?
Her: With cream cheese frosting?
When a man loves a woman - meg ryan and andy garcia at the start of the film.

Wow you're all as sad as me!

How do you intend rolling them? If simply down a slope, then the hollow one will take more time to accelerate, which will offset the extra inertia as it slows down!

Floating won't work, because they will have exactly the same density (weight by volume).

I suppose that you could heat them both up, and then monitor the rate of reduction in temperature, but that will depend on the specific heat capacity of whatever makes up each sphere.

How about squeezing each one, and then noting which one deforms (or rather dents) first?

Bung them both in the microwave for an hour. The one that doesn't explode is solid.
