It's wrong, the best case scenario is not to run the the same angle of the rain.
Make all calculations again substituin alpha by alpha - beta, where beta is the angle you make with the vertical and minimize it, beta is not alpha! QED

I love this man !!
Very clever my old friend very clever !!
Lovely professor !!
-
which lecture does this go with? I imagine it is the one with Robert the monkey?

@fluff125 he never said you catch less rain, but rather he projected it so that he could be able to calcute the total amount of rain they would catch ! good eye though.. !

@techin5official The real question is: why don't more people get excited about these things? Physics is amazingly cool, and I would love to have Walter Lewin as my professor!
