Question

4. On her way to visit her grandmother Grangran, Red Riding Hood sits down to rest and places her 1.2kg basket of chocolate, cupcakes, and cookies beside her. A wolf comes along, spots the basket of goodies, and cannot resist the sweet smell. He begins to pull on the handle with a force of 6.4N at an angle of 250 on the right of the vertical. Red is not going to let her sweets go without a fight, so she pulls on the handle with a force of 12N. As a passerby, you see that the net force on the basket is straight up.

• Instead of helping Red, you decide to sit down and figure out at what angle she is pulling. What angle do you get?

• The wolf is able to fight off Red Riding Hood and lifts the 1.2 kg basket of goodies to his nose to smell the sweet smell. He lifts the basket vertically with his paws at a constant upward velocity of 1.5 m/s. What is the magnitude of the totalforce of the wolf’s paws on the basket?

• There is no figure, Include FBD
