The rungs of a 10 foot ladder attached to a ship are 1 foot apart. If the water is rising at the rate of one foot an hour, how long will it take until the water covers over the ladder?

It can't unless the ship sinks.

We'll call that a winner!  The water will never cover the ladder because as the water rises the ship rises.  Little to easy maybe....lol.
