Then why do you wish such ill on those that protest an evil organization, that you have no association with?

As I said before Kommie, I'm an eschatologist, not a scientologist.

Ok. It will take me a little time to reply. I am working on some data analysis, but I have started my reply.

Did my explanation make sense to you?

By the way, you do know about Steven Jones, right? He is not a credible scientific source.

"When you calculate total mass, the value of the mass you are using should already take into account its inertia."

Huh? Inertia is not a part of a force equation.

If we are talking about rotating objects, then there is an analog to force called moment of intertia, it's symbol is I and for three dimensional rotating objects it is a tensor. That is neither here nor there.

I am not sure how much your analogy makes sense. But I will play with it-

If you knocked out the last 8 inches of your house, in say an imprecise way. Do you think it wouldn't collapsed? I mean it would depend on how you did it, but, I think, in this case the equation is pretty clear.

In reply to this comment by Irishman:
This isn't right surely, what you are saying would mean that I would only have to knock out about 8 inches of my house for the entire thing to collapse into rubble. There isn't enough time for the falling part to gather enough inertia and therefore total mass.

Yes, absolutely the impulse is practically negiglible from the start. We are talking about 12 stories falling into one. Let alone that fact the superstructure is not made up of independent parts. All things considered, it is not only reasonable to discover that the towers fell at an acceleration close to gravity, it is expected.

I should remark that the estimates for the collapse are just that, and more than likely a lower bound. Realistically, the collapse probably started many seconds before the visual or seismic data could have measured.

The 11 seconds is obtained for the seismic data. If you can find me a citation which proves otherwise I'd like to see it.

I am not sure my equation needs anything. I mean if the speed was faster the acceleration of gravity then it would need something.

NIST estimated the elapsed times for the first exterior panels to strike the ground after the collapse initiated in each of the towers to be approximately 11 seconds for WTC 1 and approximately 9 seconds for WTC 2. These elapsed times were based on: (1) precise timing of the initiation of collapse from video evidence, and (2) ground motion (seismic) signals recorded at Palisades, N.Y., that also were precisely time-calibrated for wave transmission times from lower Manhattan (see NCSTAR 1-5A).

When you calculate total mass, the value of the mass you are using should already take into account its inertia.

In reply to this comment by Irishman:
The total distance fallen by the taller building was 416.97 metres.

g at sea level is 9.81m/s

t (time taken for collapse) is 10 seconds from the seismic records and video footage.

416.97 metres will take 9.22 seconds to fall in a vacuum. The taller tower collapsed in 10 seconds.

That means that the 80 lower floors offered less than one second of resistance; this is not including air resistance.

That leaves less that one second for the amount of inertia to build up, not the 11 seconds that I think your equation needs. But correct me if I am wrong.

Go to 6. There is the answer.

Right, so let me know if I lose you, and I will try to make it more clear-

The basic idea is that as the mass collapsed the initial collapsing floors collapsed at a total acceleration less than gravity at STP. At the floors collapsed onto each other their total momentum increased.

Or an easier way to see it,

F= (M+dm)*a = (M+dm)*g_STP-Fimpulse

Here I represented the force downward as an increasing quantity and Fimpulse as the force due to the collision of the total mass at time t-1 to time t. So, as the mass falls it gains more mass, until eventually the total force of the mass falling can be approximated F~(M+dm)g_STP.

Not that more mass falls at a faster rate, rather as more mass falls the effect of the other forces becomes negligible.

This means that for the most part the acceleration can be effectively described by something in freefall, and hence g_STP~a.

Note Fimpulse is a constant as a function of time.

I back Choggie's comments.

My own thoughts,
The thermite theory addressed the problem of the freefall speed of the tower's collapse.

There is still no official or third party theory that addresses that problem.

A freefall speed of collapse explicity implies no resistance, and that is impossible for 3 of the buildings that collapsed at freefall speed unless they were demolished.

If someone can explain how the freefall collapses were caused by the fire, then they will have solved the riddle.

This is for the scientist who doesn't know any other scientists who disbelieve the official 9/11 story, here are three of them presenting their case at the American Scholars Symposium.

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-5004704309041471296

This video is also for those of you still out there who think that these buildings were brought down by the aircraft impacts. As for the amount of people involved having to keep it secret, well, the JFK asassination was whitewashed and covered up for all these years. And it's common knowledge that half of Hollywood know that 9/11 was an inside job.

Good to be on board here, I'm an old TAYTV fan! Yay!
