what problems are solved by the theory of 11 different dimensions instead of just 1-4 proposed in the m theory and string theory

As I said, superstring theory is inconsistent in D<>10.clm321 said:why is it that there are 10 dimentions shown in the string theory instead of just 1-4.
Which 7 theories? 5 string theories, supergravity plus m-theory? This is a rather global question ...clm321 said:what questions are answered about the univers/possible universes by the 7 different theorys?
clm321 said:Well, I am still studying these theories ... I've only found ... and interest in this just recently ... but isn't it M-theory that has 11 [different] dimensions, or maybe superstring theory. I am not exacly sure.
The 11 dimensions in string theory are 3 spatial dimensions (length, width, and height), 1 time dimension, and 7 additional dimensions that are believed to be compactified or curled up in tiny loops.
Some scientists propose that there are only 4 dimensions because the concept of 11 dimensions is difficult to comprehend and has not yet been proven through scientific experiments or observations. Additionally, certain theories, such as the theory of relativity, can be explained with just 4 dimensions.
Scientists have evidence from experiments and observations that support the existence of the 11 dimensions proposed in string theory. For example, the behavior of subatomic particles can only be explained by the existence of extra dimensions.
The significance of 11 dimensions in string theory is that it provides a way to unify the four fundamental forces of nature (gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force) and explain the behavior of particles at the smallest scales.
Some scientists theorize that our perception of 3-dimensional space could be an illusion and that there may be more dimensions that we are not able to perceive. This is supported by mathematical models and theories such as string theory and the holographic principle.
