[Contest] Valentine's Day Celebration @ 2016

It's February, once again and love is in the air! In the spirit of Valentine's Day, let's try bringing out the romantics in us and help lighten up the colors of Brilliant!

  • To enter, please enter a link to your problem/note/wiki in the comments. Add (at most) one image, if you feel like it.

  • The problem/note/wiki must be related to Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, Economics, Biology or Computer Science in some way. Needless to say, it must also relate to the contest theme.

  • Wikis are not jokes. If you wish to submit a wiki, please do not compromise with the integrity of wiki articles.

  • We are looking for the best content, not authors. So, you may submit more than one content.

  • The score of a content will be determined by number of upvotes. Winning entries will be selected with a probability directly proportional to the score of the submission.

  • The contest ends on February 21, 2016.

  • To keep it clean, please avoid debating unrelated stuff on the comments unless necessary.

For an inspiration, see this ❤️


This contest is over. Check this out!

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

  • Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
  • Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
  • Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
  • Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Here's my quick submission:

Explanation of picture: The red line represents a mirror. The green lines, represent light rays that hit the mirror. The blue lines represent the reflected rays. This is similar to what is depicted in this picture: https://imgur.com/qqCj1Mi

I do hope I can somehow make this in real life.
