Two college students accidentally miss their maths final exam.

The next day they both went to plead with their professor. He said: “I will ask you each one question which will tell me if you have been listening to my lectures and will award you a pass or fail on that alone”.

He asks the first student:

"You are riding in a train carriage and you get too hot. What do you do?"

The student replies," I open the window."

"Very good. Now that window is four feet wide and three feet high. The train is travelling 50 mph due North and the wind is blowing at 15 mph due East. The interior of the carriage measures 200 cubic metres. The air outside is 10 degrees cooler than the air inside. How long will it take for new air to replace the old air in the carriage and lower your temperature by 5 degrees?"

The student is confused at this seemingly impossible question and just answers, “I don't know." So the professor says “Sorry, you’ve failed!”

He turns to his friend and says “I will now ask you the same question. You are riding in a train carriage and it gets too hot. What do you do?

He says, “I will take my jacket off."

"But it’s still too hot. What do you do?"

"I will take my tie off."

"I understand but it’s very, very hot."

"I will take my shirt off."

"Still too hot”

”Then I’ll take my trousers off”.

 “Come, come” said the professor, “won’t you look foolish going to work naked?”

 The student replies, "Professor, I don’t care how foolish I look, I am NOT opening that bloody window!"
