| No, A, listen. This is not as clear cut as you think.
| It depends whether acceleration is defined as a=F/M or a=dv/dt=d2x/dt2

I and my car accelerate simultaneously but my mass is different to the
car's mass.
Hence acceleration is independent of mass and a = d2x/dt2.

So don't use F/M.
The command modules of the Apollo missions fell to Earth with the same
acceleration as the occupants.
Hence acceleration is independent of mass and a = d2x/dt2.

increasing.

Yep. a=dv/dt.

|
| I tend to agree with Henry that all clocks in free fall should read the
same.

So do I, but I do not agree that "acceleration is only apparent."(HH)

He's not really a Henry, he's Dork Van de merde the Norwegian tusselad.
Norway is next to Finland and he lives in Belgium, neither of the three of
him
knows who's who. Only a complete shithead could mistake Phuckwit Duck
for me, but at least Phuckwit Duck told him Einstein's third law of motion
was Newton's.

Happy Henry still owes myself and Phuckwit Duck US$1000 each, and
you still owe me three cases of Glenlivet.
If you can persuade Dork Van de Haapalainen to pay up I'll waive the
three cases as a commission, but his reputation still sucks, as does
Wombat's Wobbly Wedge-on Worbits Pty Ltd.

BTW, watch out for those clever software and electronic engineers
in India:
Skilled Migration Program
The Australian Government has responded to industry concerns about
skilled job vacancies by announcing that the 2005-2006 Migration Program
has been increased to include an additional 20,000 skilled migration
places.
It is ironic that while Australia is enjoying its longest employment growth
in recent history and its lowest unemployment figures for decades, we are
facing a critical skill shortage. One company that has continued to grow
and which does not appear to suffer from this shortage is AKE Electrical
and Data Installations Pty Ltd.

I ain't about to apply, I'm retired.
