86. Your THEORY is FULL OF HOLES! (Second Revision)
"...the conclusions still work..." Not. Your formula appears to be for a hermetically sealed universe where one could theoretically pick up and drop BOTH twin towers at the same instant, (from a height of ~205 meters) with all that accumulated and accelerated mass hitting the bedrock at once. In point of fact, the towers gradually crumbled to the ground ONE AT A TIME.

"Also note that the air within the tower was compressed, and like air compressed in a bicycle pump, heated up." Noted. That would actually diminish the accumulation of downward force.

Admit it - the force of the falling floors was mostly absorbed by the sequential collapse of each successive floor as each tower fell. It wasn't even additive, let alone instantaneous. The towers became their own shock absorbers. There simply was no 225,000,000-kilogram pile-driver at work here.

WTC7 collapsed because the charges had been installed, and evidence of that needed to be destroyed. I'm no physicist, but then who is around here? Your "solution" to the collapses is simplistic and fundamentally flawed. Sorry.
