The upper part of the building - the pancake - crashed into it.

The catastrophic crash caused force. Obviously.

In fact, in classical mechanics the force is infinite but last for zero
time.

This is easily verified.

The equations here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inelastic_collision give
velocity as a function of time. If you differentiate this wrt to time and
multiply by m you can re-formulate this as an equation for Force as a
function of time (as F = m (d/dt)V, and the equation for V is given in terms
of t).

You may like to try this at home.

You get an infinite force for zero time. Now its not really an infinite
force, and its not for zero time, as the materials deform and hence the
concept of V is not uniquely defined. The actual function F(t) will depend
upon the materials used, their shapes, etc. However, you don't need to know
any of this to solve the equations of motion (ie produce the equations on
the web page); it simply does not use the function F(t) so the fact that it
cannot be determined doesn't matter. Again, you may note the absence of
force terms in the equations of motion.

I could elaborate on this in several ways, as it used often in physics. For
example, the model tacitly assumes a dirac delta function for the force, and
another interesting line of argument is looking at the integral of the Force
over time to measure momentum and over distance to measure kinetic energy.
But quite frankly, as you do not seem to understand the basic physics of an
inelastic collision, trying to explain any of the more advanced physics is a
waste of my time. But if you do want to learn more, google these words.

But isn't "g" the acceleration due to gravity in your equation?

And if a>g, doesn't that by definition mean that it is falling faster than
gravity?

If your question is whether the acceleration changes "during the crash", yes
it does. In fact at the moment of collision (ideally, instantaneous) the
acceleration is upwards and infinite. In practice it is upwards and huge.
Yes, upwards. In the opposite direction to the motion itself.

That is not the actual prediction, which said explicitly when "falling", and
*not* "colliding".

Not that it matters; it is true under either interpretation.

That "reaction" being the collision ...

So:

1. Gravity
2. Reaction from the rest of the building (at the time of collision,
according to you, which means the force of the collision acting on the upper
block)

So what's #3 ?????

Go look at it again, KOOK. He says DUE TO ITS INTERACTION WITH THE
LOWER SECTION OF THE BUILDING. That interaction, and the normal
upward force of the lower section that you went to great lengths to
describe, could not possibly happen except DURING THE COLLISION.
For you to keep claiming that he's talking about some time period
before the collision would mean that the lower section was supplying
NO upward force to it, and so it would be wrong on that basis as
well.

Keep trying, KOOK, but either way you look at it, the statement is
WRONG, and so are you.


> Not that it matters, the statement is still absolutely correct.

So it doesn't matter if it's the time period DURING THE COLLISION?
Then he's wrong on that basis because he ignored the force of the
crash DURING THE COLLISION.

So now you're proven that you're doubly wrong.

And, whereas you JUST said that it doesn't matter if his claim means
DURING THE COLLISION, then you've just admitted he's wrong to have
ignored the forces that were at play DURING THE COLLISION!

Sakin' & Bakin again! LOL! Go waaaaay up to the top of this post.
Did you see it? Did you see what the subject of this particular
exchange is? AY challenges you to give YOUR opinion of what YOU
think were the forces that were actiing upon the the upper block and
the lower support structure, DURING THE COLLISION.

Did you catch that. Since then, all you've done is refer to the
equations that were developed in order to determin the velocities of
the masses AFTER THE COLLISION.

I don't know if it's ADD, or excessive pride, or just plain
stupidity that causes you to be all over the place, and I really
don't care. But the fact remains that for whatever reason, most of
your responses have nothing to do with whatever issue is at hand.

The question, this time, was your opinion of the forces YOU think
were acting upon the upper block, DURING THE COLLISION. As you try
to either answer, or deflect from answering in your response, keep
in mind that just today, you said that the statement by the other
KOOK that the only two forces that he said were relevant to that
upper block would be correct even it he was referring to the time
DURING THE COLLSISION.

All of the above by you as it pertains to what forces you think were
relevant to what was going on DURING THE COLLISION.
