WHAT?!?! 4.2 V without the resistor? Wow, that's pretty awesome! Wire it so that one 10 ohm resistor connects the positive and negative leads form the motor, and another resistor is below the first one, also connecting the positive and negative leads. It should look something like an "H" with two things in the middle instead of one.

Haha, thanks x) OHHHHHHH, I NEED TWO OF THEM >.< hehe.... alrighty, THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOU!!!!!!! (NO HOMO, if youre a girl, NOT IN THAT SENSE, if youre a guy)

I'll post my results tomorrow, lol... *sigh*

Hahah, I'm a guy. But yeah, according to I believe Ohm's Law (or some other equation), two 10 ohm resistors in parallel will result in 5 ohms of resistance. Two 15 ohm resistors in parallel will result in 7.5 ohms of resistance.

You want a very minuscule angle on the outside, because it has to spin faster, this will eliminate drag, but a higher pitch on the inside.

Yes, though the point I was trying to make with the little story is that the building section of this event is more empirical (;

And 4.2 is pretty crazy, even if it's a combined voltage.

haha, i may have read it wrong XD Okay, well, if the voltmeter is set on Volts and the dial is a the number 2 (not 20): http://www.scienceshareware.com/images/ ... tmeter.jpg

Then how much is that??

Also... how much detail/info should i need for my binder? i mean, i have pretty basic summaries for everything, details on how they work...

Basic information isn't enough.

[illusionist]

FOR SURE. My partner and I died during our states test. It was like 8 questions or something, hardest test ever.

[eeldj123]

Basic information isn't enough.

Whenever "basic information" is mentioned in the event description, expect it to be more than just "basic information".

[Frogger4907]

Exactly.

hey guys i was wondering, if you have a turbine that takes a while to start up, would they take the average starting from when the fan is
first turned on? or would they allow the turbine to get going before taking the average?

thanks
