You are outside a room. There are 3 light switches. One light switch control the light bulb in the room. From where you are you cannot see if the bulb is lit. You have to actually enter the room to see. You are only allowed to enter the room once (1). Light switches are labeled switch number 1, switch number 2 and switch number 3. HERE IS THE MISSION: How do you know which switch control the light bulb in the room?

Flick switch 1 on and leave it on for a few minutes then turn it off and flick swicth 2 on. Enter the room, if the light is on then you know it's switch two. If the light is off but the bulb is warm to the touch then it is switch 1 and if the light is off and cold then it will be switch 3 which controls it.
