LOL!... Which "F" will that be? For what I make out of your argument, the "acceleration" you are talking about must be the one upon impact, but what comes before that is, momentum.

F =3D ma so the greater F is, the stronger/deeper it will be (the dent in = earth). for ex. andre in his book gives a parrelation of a pea being stronger = than a truck. you just alter the values of the equations and in some cases = you will get F in the pea case to be larger than the truck case. i'm sure ron will bring up more cases in this but, this is the general = jist of it. still waiting on my GR book's... got next day for the einsteins, and hawkings for 2 day delievery ;) peace, akbar A. -----Original Message----- From: gda...@li...
