Optics B/C

You can find online tutorials about it through googling, I personally never bothered to learn but probably will sometime.

For me, optics conflicts with microbe.

Yeah, that's not a conflict we would normally be looking out for....

for some formulas, its easier to just do them than to make a program for the calculator.

and for schedule conflicts, optics conflicts with protein modeling for regionals and states.

does anyone know what the premade templates are for optics

These are templates that you make for the laser shoot. They are done before competition so that you can have a precise placement of mirrors instead of just winging it.

Basically just premade mirror placements you can use no matter how the obstacles are set up. It takes much more work to go in and actually calculate the angle measurements for each mirror to hit the target.

I think Chalker is only asking for national conflicts, because he's part of a committee for nationals (whichever committee that is).

True, although many states and regionals use the national schedule.

As for my committee, note the lines below vvvvvvvvv

Hey guys, just wondering; For the speed of light, do you usually use 3*10^8 m/s or the exact value (299792458 m/s)? What have you seen on your tests?

Unless stated in the problem otherwise, I use the exact value... Probably because I'm super strict about exact answers, and so that could be just me...
