He deserves your pity. But if he threatens your self-esteem then it's
understandable you would not feel merciful.

JT: He deserves your pity.

Lamb chops don't threaten my self-esteem and I show them
no mercy. What have they done to deserve pity? But if it
makes you feel better I'll say "poor, pitiful little lamb chops"
and weep crocodile tears for them come dinner time, and
have a pity party for Dougal.
Poor, pitiful little Dougal, he shouldn't have strayed from the
Magic Roundabout.

Dear PD, the Parasite Dunce: Kinetic Energy is identical to
MOMENUTM. It's how hard an object of known weight will impact due to
having some specific velocity. It turns out that KE will increase ONE
WEIGHT UNIT of FORCE for every 32.174 ft. per second increase in
velocity. In the case of falling objects, that velocity increase
occurs every second of the fall.

Work—like we both agree—is force x distance. Move something twice as
far against some resistance, and in the desired direction, and you do
twice as much WORK. But the distance of fall of falling objects isn't
against any resistance! So, no work can be calculated. What is
known, however, is that the WEIGHT of the object is uniformly acting
DOWN, for however long the object falls.

*** The majority of the distance of fall is due to the accruing
coasting velocity each second. What that is like is taking your foot
off of the accelerator when you reach 32.174 ft. / sec. During the
next second (ignoring road friction and wind resistance) the car will
COAST 32.174 feet. The latter distance doesn't increase KE, because
the velocity hasn't changed! If you would actually take the following
Pop Quiz for Science Buffs, you might better understand that distance
of travel doesn't increase KE, nor momentum (the same thing), in any
way. The equation for momentum is mass x velocity (in 'g'
multiples). 'D' is nowhere to be seen in such. — NoEinstein —

Dear PD, the Parasite Dunce: If your activity on these groups bore
any resemblance to science, then, where are your '+new posts'? Other
than that one plagiarized post of yours on high energy particle
physics, your "position" on science has never been specified. —
