How have the written tests been for everyone? FOr our regional, we just had some basic formula related problems, and a few questions about alternate energy and how much of it is used in the States. Question though... What are the 4 non-renewable energy sources? I put petroleum, natural gas, coal.... what else?

Uranium.

And the Regional test seemed like it was pretty dogon easy, though I do not know for sure as we did not get scores back. It seemed easy though. Shame our fan blade wasnt good enough to get us a medal.

WHAT?! URANIUM?! But- but- I thought that nuclear energy was considered "alternate"? (That's what I've learned in 6th grade at least...)

Yeah, so was ours. Way too easy. I'm scared that our States test will be super hard... Our fan got .4 (not sure if it was in mV or V... V i think?)

How much resistance?

[2win]

How much resistance?

I think about 5? or 5.5ohms? somewhere around those two... (the proctor wasn't specific)

[Frogger4907]

Good Job, what'd u make your blade out of?

[2win]

Thanks! Plastic, thin sheets of it. It's a design no one really uses, including the material, but I've managed to make it work.

[Frogger4907]

any pictures? sounds really neat.

My partner made a decent design for this, but I don't know if it's going to break when they put it on the cd player-thing, can it bend backwards and forwards? If so, how far? Thanks~

Up to 3 cm on each side.
