jesus christ, what the fuck did this thread turn into?
you fuckers are looking for the impulse of her hitting the ground, as an impulse is going to be the best measure of the forces in question here. We're talking a collision here, one that couldn't really be classified as either elastic or inelastic, meaning there's really no legitimate means of calculating anything with regards to forces or accelerations involved. I'd go into more detail, but in light of the inability of anyone in here to even spell deceleration, I'll refrain. Bottom line, the retardation present gave me a pretty quality laugh, and I've already been drinking for several hours.
And I'd just like to echo KJ's sentiments here in saying....what the FUCK is "deaccerlation"
Fucking kids making up words and shit....

I learned grammarian from sxymoviebuff, she told me that her english professor is a grammarian. I corrected her when she said something to the effect of, "I will borrow the movie to you." I had to explain to her that you can't borrow an item to someone, you can borrow it FROM them.
to determine a force, you'd have to determine both the nature of the collision, as well as the velocity of the body in question, in order to determine the momentum and the impulse related to the collision. With a collision like this between a mass considered to be infinitely large, and a body that cannot be considered either fully elastic or fully inelastic, you really cannot make the types of assumptions necessary to make conclusions about the forces in play.
Let it go. Regardless of the forces, velocities, or words you'd like to make up and pretend are legit, the bitch is dead.
Assuming you have some sort of amazing scale that reads out in milisecond intervals, you'll see that you have a steadily increasing force magnitude, up to a maximum, and then leveling back off to a steady state (equal to the static weight of the body).
What I'm saying here is that the general assumption is either a perfectly inelastic, or a perfectly elastic collision, in order to determine the nature of the resulting impulse, and therefore the nature of the forces involved in the collision. The nature of the impulse will allow you to estimate the force resultant from the collision. Without these assumptions, or an amazing scale to read out the resultant force from the collision in ridiculously small time intervals (not to mention a suicidal 19 year old who is cooperative enough to kill herself right onto said scale), you're never going to know the forces involved, period.
Again, the bitch is dead, period.
WTF ....LMAO
She landed where i circled. The center section of the building is the only part that goes 40+ Floors. She landed on the section above the columns which is only as wide as the sidewalk it covers. I cant even imagine when she hit how much stuff flew into the streets. Looking from my building 17 floors up you can tell she landed closer to the end near the street and shit was still splattered all over the building. Her shoes still sitting there and 3 guys with the white suits cleaning it up. nutz

I fail at posting pictures.... I though you could blow it up..?
ok finally got it

I can see it now....
"In other news, a lady in Chicago jumped out of the 45th story of the Opera House therefore causing a riveting physics discussion to occur on the interwebs."
Yall better be engineers or something, cuz your nerdiness is weirding me out. Except for Turk, who appears to just be trying to figure out what gravity is.
