3. If tips of an airplane propeller exceed the sound barrier it will ultimately destroy the prop.
TRUE
Breaking the sound barrier as it spins will set up a shock wave and cause it to cavitate and wreck the prop. This is a MAJOR limiting factor in helicopter forward speed because the prop is so long.

4. If you had unlimited money and there were no limit on bets, you could beat Las Vegas' odds and make money whenever you gambled.
TRUE
An even money bet could be doubled when a loss occurs, eventually a win will offset the loss. Casinos must have an upper limit to prevent “doubling up to catch up” . Most people would run out of money first, that’s why I stated unlimited money. Note this is not limited to even money bets, but other types will increase bet size more rapidly because of increased consecutive losses. Unlimited money? Who cares if they lose?

5. Australia has no land snakes.
FALSE

6. A ship will float lower in the water when it leaves the river and sails into the ocean.
FALSE
