These questions are meant to test your thought process, and there is no one correct answer to any of them, however some may be considered more correct than others by the interviewer. That said, here are my answers.

What sort of amputee would the bicycle be designed for? Someone who lost a leg? What about an arm, or even half of a leg and an arm? If we assume a leg, was it amputated at the ankle, or above the knee? My point is that the instructions as given aren't thorough enough to complete even the simplest of preliminary designs. The design specification needs to be more specific.

Since the use of the word "could" implies that I'd have the option not to eliminate any states, I wouldn't, as I see no real reason to do so.

Because manholes are round.
