| Why did the Crane in NYC fall over while the Twin Towers defied the laws of
physics and fell straight down? 3 different buildings fell straight down into their own footprint on 9/11 just like buildings do when they are imploded. Only 2 of those buildings were hit by airplanes. The third, WTC7 wasn't a tower and wasn't hit by an airplane, but it still fell straight down just like a controlled demolition. Demolition experts spend a long time calculating the physics involved in a building implosion to keep them from falling over-but sometimes they still fall over due to extra stresses such as wind or weakened supports. The crane in NYC fell over onto a building-just as we would expect it to because things fall over, not down. Why did the crane choose to follow the laws of physics and fall over while the Twin Towers defied the laws of physics by falling straight down-just like a controlled demolitiion implosion-into their own footprints? |

Hmmm, you don't know elementary junior high school physics. I'll help. F=MA F=MV/T F=MD/T/T Lets' analyze. The twin towers collapsed starting from the upper floors. The Force gravity is acting downward. The Mass was the above floors. Since the floors gave way, the mass fell driving by the force, which was downward, hence it fell straight down. Now lets look at the crane. The Force gravity is downward, the mass was the top of the crane. Most likely the support gave way causing the mass to try to fall downward, since it couldn't (because the crane was stable) the initial force to break inertia was horizontal, then the force of gravity accelerated the collapse. Hence it fell sideways. It's simple, even an 8th grade student could understand. |
