No. There was no context for that quote you provided at all; you did not provide any when you first posted it, and you provided none above. I used the entire quote you provided in full. > You knew that. And the statement itself proves this with "due to its > interaction with the lower section of the building". IOW, the context was > during the time interval of the crash of that upper block into the lower > support structure. > Perhaps. For your information, the statement that was provided is true when the top section of the building is falling between floors, and it is also true when the floors collide. You did not provide any context for their statememt. So whilst it is absolutely correct whether we are talking about the falling or crashing stage, its only really a useful insight if applied during the falling phase; the word in the quote was "falling", and that is what I imagine they meant. Not, as I say, that it affects the truth of the statement; the statement is completely correct. > And, in THAT context, the statement is wrong.

If you don't believe these two forces are at play, which one isn't? Or if you believe there are addditional forces acting on the upper block, what are they? (Momentum is not a force, btw). >> Here is what I said is absolutely correct: >> >> "The only two relevant forces acting on the falling block are >> gravity (mg) and an upward normal force (N) due to its >> interaction with the lower section of the building."" >> >> If you think there are any other relevant forces acting on the >> falling block other than those two forces, what do you think >> they are? > > In the context of the time interval in which the falling block is > interacting with the lower, stationary support structure, the relevant > force was the reaction of the lower support structure to (d/dt)mv of the > upper block.

Try to > focus. > How is "an upward normal force (N) due to its interaction with the lower section of the building" different from "the relevant force was the reaction of the lower support structure to (d/dt)mv of the upper block."

You may note that such calculations are performed using conservation of momentum, and the concept of force is not used. HTH

[snipped a bunch of lies by PW] Look, I'm tired of all of your shaking and baking and every other kind of obfuscation you're tried to throw out there just to avoid admitting your mistakes. As far as saying that the following statement is "absolutely correct", you're dead wrong. "The only two relevant forces acting on the falling block are gravity (mg) and an upward normal force (N) due to its interaction with the lower section of the building." You want context, here's the context. A debate between AY and the KOOK Henry was being waged as to whether or not the remaining lower support structure of the towers failed because the upper block of floors fell on it, or whether it failed for other reasons. The KOOK kept saying that the proof it had fallen for other reasons was that the support structure was designed to hold up the weight of the upper block, and that this was the only force being exerted on it, and yet, it didn't hold up. You knew this was the context of that quote. You could not know otherwise. Yet, in light of that context, you pronounced that statement "absolutely correct". That's clearly wrong. Since then, you've tried to defend your position by claiming that, by definition, the only force that could be exerted on a falling body_is_gravity. But that's not only contrary to the context in which that statement was made, your claim is also contrary to the statement. It doesn't say that the only force acting on the falling block was gravity. It says there were two forces acting on that body, and that the other was the reaction force of the lower structure "due to its interaction". So the falling body in that statement was interacting (i.e., colliding) with a support structure. By definition, and in the context of 911, this HAD to be the infamous collision of the falling block with the lower structure. Do you know of any Newtonian forceless collisions? We're not talking about quantum physics here, and so remember context. You've tried to salvage your position by mischaracterizing the condition in that statement as that of just a falling body because only gravity acts on a falling body. But that's not the condition described by the statement. The statement says that the falling body is falling, AND interacting with the support structure. THAT is the case of a collision, and in the case of a collision, and as AY has correctly pointed out, Newton's second law of motion F=(d/dt)mv is also going on. YES, that means a force other than the weight of the upper block, which means that the statement that weight, and the "normal upward" reaction to it, were the only forces going on in that collision is dead wrong. It was the force which resulted from the collision. It wasn't F=mg. It was F=(d/dt)mv. 'g' only served to establish the maximum 'v'. Either way, that statement is not correct. Either way, you're wrong to say that it was correct. The bottom line for you, and for the KOOK Henry, is that the momentum of the upper block played a very significant role in the failure of the lower support structure. Any way you slice it, that change in momentum 'mv' by the function of 'd/dt' resulted in a force which was the very reason that the support structure failed. During the interaction between the two bodies, it was (d/dt)mv that was acting upon the upper block. And BTW, you were also wrong to think that your analysis of the collapse of the towers which ignored the resistance of the support structures could answer the question of whether or not that support structure offered any resistance to the collapse. That's a self-contradicting position. Even a KOOK could see the error there. |
