Red Riding Hood sat down to rest and placed her 1.20-kg basket of goodies beside her. A wolf came along, spotted the basket, and

began to pull on the handle with a force of 6.40 N at an angle of 25° with respect to vertical. Red was not going to let go easily, so she pulled on the handle with a force of 12.5 N. If the net force on the basket is straight up, at what angle was Red Riding Hood pulling from the vertical? (show work)

Answer:

  117.6°

Explanation:

The vertical component of a force directed at some angle α from the vertical is ...

  F·cos(α)

We want the vertical components of the wolf's force (Fw) and Red's force (Fr) to total zero. So for some angle from vertical α, Red's force will satisfy ...

  Fw·cos(25°) + Fr·cos(α) = 0

  cos(α) = -Fw/Fr·cos(25°) ≈ -(6.4 N)/(12.5 N)·0.906308 ≈ -0.464030

  α ≈ arccos(-0.464030) ≈ 117.6°

Red was pulling at an angle of about 117.6° from the vertical.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

That's about 27.6° below the horizontal.

Monochromatic light of wavelength 687 nm is incident on a narrow slit. On a screen 1.65 m away, the distance between the second
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a ) 1.267 radian

b ) 1.084 10⁻³ mm

Explanation:

Distance of screen D = 1.65 m

Width of slit d = ?

Wave length of light   λ  = 687 nm.

Distance of second minimum fro centre y = 2.09 cm

Angle of diffraction = y / D

=  2.09 /1.65  

= 1.267. radian

Angle of diffraction of second minimum

= 2 λ / d

so 2 λ / d = 1.267

d = 2 λ / 1.267 = (2 x 687 ) /1.267 nm

=1084.45 nm = 1.084 x 10⁻³ mm.

"how do the fundamental laws of physics make manifest that space has 3 dimensions?"
bazaltina [42]
If you are asking for a proof on having at least 3 dimensions in space, you can find the physical proof anywhere in your daily life activities. Just the fact that solids have volumes is a proof already that we live in a three-dimensional space. We can move forwards, backwards, sidewards and in all other directions possible.

When you go right into detail, the fundamental laws governing these proofs are very technical. They have differential equations to show as proof. It is too detailed to discuss here. The important things is that, these fundamental laws are what explains the science in our basic activities and natural phenomena:

*Gravitation and planetary motion
* Translation, rotation, magnetic field, forces
* Integrals of equations:
