Question 544815: Hello,
I am trying to imagine using three flash lights in a ball to light it up without changing the balance of the ball (too much). If the end of each light is at the center, could they be positioned to be equidistant from each other?
If it were just a single plane, then the angle between each would be 120 degrees. How should two be rotated along other planes to have the ends be equidistant in space?
Thanks!
