My friends and I argued about this and we can't come to a conclusion. Thanks in advance.What is the outcome when an unstoppable object runs into an immovable object?
If there was no air resistance, or friction, yet Newtons laws still stood:
The immovable objects high inertia would resist the movement, therefore the unstoppable object would continue in another direction. The best example I could give you is throwing a bouncy ball at the floor. The ball will bounce back, because every force gives off an equal and opposite push.What is the outcome when an unstoppable object runs into an immovable object?
There's no such thing as an immovable object. Even an object with arbitrarily large mass has no absolute velocity, because absolute velocity doesn't exist. All objects are motionless from one point of view, and moving from another.
There's also no such thing as an unstoppable object. Such an object would have infinite mass, therefore the entire universe would have infinite gravity. Clearly this is not the case.
Basically, you're trying to resolve two mutually exclusive statements. You may as well say, ';I am a square, and I am not a square. Am I a square?';
lolzzz you'll have to give a bit more detail.
In a perfect scenerio, disregarding air resistance etc etc,
when the unstoppable object collides, it will rebound, and continue moving in the reverse direction ( sort of like throwing a tennis ball towards a wall). The wall will remain stationary, while the ball speeds off in the other direction.
An endless vortex opens that leave the unmovable object unmoved, yet keeps the unstoppable object continously moving. Like lithium said there is no unmovable object because Chuck Norris would make it move itself.
The outcome is the pitter patter of lots of little unstoppable feet in immovable shoes.
Can't happen...remember physics (the little thing called friction)
Cheez It...Cheez It
Kaboom! The question has no meaning as it refers to objects that not only do not exist, but cannot exist.
The universe implodes and everyone has a real bad day and God gets mad.
its only happend once that i know of....
created enough energy to fuel the big bang...
thats my guess anyways
