Pancake collapse of a tall building. In the section of a tall building shown in Fig. 9-71 a , the infrastructure of any given floor K must support the weight W of all higher floors. Normally the infrastructure is constructed with a safety factor s so that it can withstand an even greater downward force of sW . If, however, the support columns between K and L suddenly collapse and allow the higher floors to free-fall together onto floor K (Fig. 9-71 b ), the force in the collision can exceed sW and, after a brief pause, cause K to collapse onto floor J, which collapses on floor I, and so on until the ground is reached. Assume that the floors are separated by d = 4.0 m and have the same mass. Also assume that when the floors above K free-fall onto K, the collision lasts 1.5 ms. Under these simplified conditions, what value must the safety factor 5 exceed to prevent pancake collapse of the building? Figure 9-71 Problem 82.

PART III - RESISTORS IN PARALLEL
Consider (but do not yet build) the circuit shown in the circuit diagram
to the left, which we will call Circuit 3. Make sure you are using Bert
bulbs. You may want to wire two batteries in series rather than use a
single battery.
