What happens when the unstoppable force hits the immovable object?

Either the object is not immovable or the force is not irresistible.  Both things can not be true at the same time.

Actually this will be unknown forever cause by that time the universe will reach to its "ultimate fate"\nby the way, you can go here to know...\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultimate_fate_of_the_universe

The two best answers to this paradox are basically one of logic and one of semantics, and they each say that the question doesn't make sense.\n\nThe answer using logic is that if such a thing as an irresistible force exists, then no object is immovable, and vice versa. It is logically impossible to have these two entities (a force that cannot be resisted and an object that cannot be moved by any force) in the same universe. \n\nThe answer using semantics is that if there is such a thing as an irresistible force, then the phrase immovable object is meaningless in that context, and vice versa, and the issue amounts to the same thing as asking, e.g., for a triangle that has four sides.

The answer is C. Although B seems to be a possible answer at first, there could still be an n-number of forces acting on the object such that the sum of all the force vectors is zero, thus making C the more complete answer. One of Newton's laws says that F=m*a (force on an object equals its mass times its acceleration), or a force of 1 Newton on a 1kg object will make it accelerate at a rate of 1m/s^2 in the same direction of the force.

No one knows for sure.  The force of a wormhole theoretically can rip someone apart.

it is just like understanding a hyperbola. if you throw a stone in air it will feeling a force until it reaches the highest altitiude then it falls down as a projectile . the path traced by it may be in vector quantities

Nothin would happen.\nIf you consider two bodies the earth (name it E) and a large mass (m). \ninitially M rests on E. and you lift mass M. the force used to lift it will also act on E.\nAlso if you consider the mass M and E. as a system force exerted on dropping M would be internal and since internal forces do not cause acc. the Earth will not get unbalanced.\n\nThats good for us isn't it...

Glad to see you're thinking, but this is an easily answered question.  \n\nTake for example a magnet.  Regardless of what is in front of your magnet it will still attract an object to a distance equal to its strength.\n\nex:\n\n.....(|)<<<< <[]<<<<<<<[]          \n\n......^..............^...... ......^\nMagnet......Metal..... ..Metal\n.................Object.... Object\n\nThe magnet is going to exert force on both of the objects without interference from first object.  \n\nBased on your definition of propagate...come to your own conclusion...that is the joy of thinking...we all have our own thoughts.

By their definitions, you can't have both.\nIf a force is truly unstoppable, then no object is unmovable.\nIf an object is truly unmovable, then no force can be unstoppable.\n\nThen again, the force may just pass through the object the way neutrinos pass through the earth.

It depends on how it came to rest. If it had Striked any other ball then its K.E will be transfered to the other. If u were to catch it , then imagine how u will bring your hand towards the ground so as to reduce its impact.Thus its k.E is transferred to you.\n               But if it were to strike the ground then the case is different.From conservation of momentum ,M1V1=M2V2.If M2 be the mass of earth, it is very large when compared to that of the ball. So to satisfy the above condition, V2 should be negligbly small. so we do not face amy impact. Now consider the case of an asteroid or an Hydrogen bomb.We r sure of expriencing the impact.

Jump with it.  It may break, but you'll never know.

Assuming the spring doesn't release that bit of its potential energy as kinetic energy by decompressing as it falls, it will be released as kinetic energy as the pieces of the disintegrating spring are forced apart due to the stress placed on the object and the action of the acid weakening its structure (there's no such thing as instantaneous disintegration... even if it only takes a millionth of a second, it still took some time to happen).\n\nBeyond that, quite a bit more chemical energy will be released as the acid oxidizes the metal in the spring and causes it to disintegrate.

there are problems in your theory... first what can be considered FIXED in the universe. nothing is fixed... its a relative term in this situation.  Also an unbreakable string is an impossibility. There is no such situation where something is completely unbreakable. Even the smallest particle can be broken by enough outside force. \n\n I would like to take your idea to a different level. Lets say it was possible to have an unbreakable string.  Send the ends of this string into 2 different black holes.  Visualize 2 black holes connect by a string.  To answer your first question about seeing the string... You would able to see it until it got to the point where the light wouldn't be able to escape the gravitational pull of the black hole... In theory if the string is unbreakable then it will be impervious to heat and pressure... so it wont melt and crush... Eventually the constant pressure on the string would bring the 2 black holes together. Until the combined gravitational pull of both black holes on each other cause a cataclysmic event where the combined speed and pull of the black holes would cause the entire universe to collapse on itself... and everything as we know it would cease to exist

All of these questions can be answered using Newton's 2nd Law:\n\n"The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the resultant force acting on the body and is in the same direction."\n\nThus, if a box has a net force of 0 N, it will not accelerate. This means that its velocity will not change. Note that this DOES NOT necessarily mean that its velocity is 0, just that the velocity is not changing.\n\nIf the box has a net force of 15 N, then it will accelerate in the direction of the applied force. Note that the magnitude of the acceleration is dependant upon the mass of the box.\n\nSo, to answer your two questions:\n\nA) Yes, it will have constant velocity.\n\nB) Yes, the box will accelerate.

mass in motion stays in motion unless disrupted by another force!

The answer is, there is an instant when a thrown object (upwards) reaches a velocity of zero, which is what the dropped object has the instant it is released. From these two instants in time, the response of each object is only to gravity.
