How do I present this math problem for personal injury claim?

[bercnan72]

A 61"x54"x6" awning fails and falls 25" to hit me on the left side of head . took a bad blow to the left side of my head ,shoulder, and arm. Was knocked out, beat up to the ground. A huge flower pot saved my legs from being crushed. Awning was held up with 2x4's on either side. The left sided 2x4 failed due to rot inside . The awning creaked and when I looked up I saw it just slide out of the house and it was coming down in a split second. It had not bolts. just 8 straight nails. I saw my death. I couldnt back up fast enough. I am also legaly blind onmy left side and have no depth perception. I also have been traumatized. Im injured, however lucky to be alive. Help math wizards.

That really sucks, sorry to hear. I'm not sure what you're looking for though? If we knew what the awning was made of, or how heavy it was, we could probably figure out how much force hit the side of your head (roughly).

Yeah... we'd basically need to know it's mass -- how heavy it was.

I hope you heal well and I'm glad you're alive!
