SORRY ITS NOT LETTING ME EDIT MY POSTS... anyway...
A truck is going to go over a 1 mile long bridge. The truck weight EXACTLY 10,000 lbs. The bridge can hold MAXIMUM of 10,000 lbs. Nothing else is on the bridge exept for that truck. The truck stops exactly half way through the bridge, then a bird lands on the truck. Does the bridge collapse? Why or Why not?

depends on the bridge design. Some bridges the centre may not be the weakest point. the weakest point of the bridge must be able to take 10000 lbs, so therefore if the centre is not the weakest, then it's likely the bird won't cause the bridge to collapse.
Infact, since the centre of the bridge is the obvious weak point, most bridge design will ensure the centre point is better supported and strengthened. This may move the weak point back onto the bridge columns or a point between the centre and the columns.
However if the truck stops on the weakest point, and the bird stops flapping it's wings, then I'm guessing the bridge will collapse.

YIP! The truck went through the bridge and not over it!! So it collapsed!
