Will the fan used at Nationals be at least 30 cm in diameter? I know it's a little late to be asking this, but I'm just wondering.
Our current stats:
1660 mv high
1450 mv low
I know it's hard to compare, but we're using a large (non-boxy) fan.

Assuming I know what that is, it's my high speed.

I see my ignorance.ichaelm wrote:Watts measure a rate of energy transfer. Volts measure energy per unit charge. So you can't turn Volts into watts, because they are completely different things.
I've been getting 900 millivolts.

Re: Physical Science Lab
Can someone tell me how to convert from volts to watts?

Re: Video game thread.
God I wish I had a Xbox. If anyone is going to get CODWW, you may know this, but get it for the Xbox... No offense to the Wii people, but the graphics are terrible, and there's no Nacht der Untoten. I played it on the Xbox at my friend's house...I shot people, and they basically just exploded! I mea...

Right now speed and accuracy is probably a problem for me.
My coach said something about having a tv antenna to guide your scrambler or something, I didn't really ask, so can anyone tell me what that's about?

Re: Murphy's Laws
When in doubt, empty your magazine. Being shot hurts. Having a buddy gives the enemy someone else to shoot at. Never tell the Platoon Sergeant you have nothing to do. The crucial round is a dud. If the enemy is in range, so are you. You are not Superman; marines and fighter pilots take note. The onl...

Re: Scrambler Rules
What are you using for wheels? I personally use CD's with rubber bands around the edge. I used those for my back wheels, had to glue them on with epoxy. for my front wheels I used a speaker wire spool...I guess some people just have leftover speaker wire spools in their house. Rubber bands don't re...
