There are 3 random lights bulbs in the second floor of the house, and 3 random light switches on the first floor of the house, how can you tell the switch on a specific light bulbs. You can only go to the second floor one time only.

initially, when u r on floor 1, press any one switch. keep it like that for say, 2 minutes. then switch it off
next, press the next switch and let it be on.
Finally, now go to the second floor.
the bulb which is lighted, corresponds to the switch which is currently switched on in the floor 1.
then touch the remaining bulbs. the bulb which is warmer, corresponds to the earlier switch (that was switched on).
the cooler bulb corresponds to the last switch.
okkkk?

i'm guessing you go to the second floor and then get a friend or someone else to switch on/off the lights and then you can check for the specific light bulbs.

Turn two light switches on. Walk to the second floor to see which lights came on. The dark light is the unused switch.
Unplug one of the lit lights and return to the first floor.
Turn off one of the lights you turned on earlier. When you look upstairs, if a light is still on then the switch is for the light you unscrewed. Otherwise, it is for the light you didn't unscrew.

First you on any two switches and go to the 2nd floor and see which light is still not on. There you got the answer that the light which is not glowing belongs to the switch we never touched.

switch on the first wait for a while ... like about 5 minutes ... then switch on the second ... and then go upstairs touch both the bulbs ... the one hotter is the one that you switched on first and the second bulb that is on and less hot is the one u switched on second ... and obviously the third is the one which you didn't switch on !
