  1. i think if the unstoppable object would break down into pieces(explosion)

    but light is also unstoppable with infinite effective mass & most probable velocity &  gets reflected when hits an object


  2. depends if the unmovable object has any elasticity either way some speed will be lost by the unmovable

  3. the two objects would become one and start to spin a vortex would appear at the poles of the spin and all the energy would fly out from thees vortexes as gamma rays

  4. The unstopable object would keep moving either by rebounding or going straight through...?????

  5. There is no answer because they're both hypothetical unreal things.

  6. They would both immediately disappear in a puff of logic.

  7. A huge explosion, perhaps?

    But since you're using examples that break the laws of physics, there's no point in trying to give a realistic answer.

  8. lol....bloody good question that...blind stag...[no eyed deer]...ill be back later to read answers...and have a star on me...

  9. Splat!

  10. Neither object can exist.

    For an object to be unstoppable the thrust pushing it would need to be impossibly large, as a result of this it would be moving with a velocity near the speed of light (if it had enough time to accelerate).

    For an object to be immovable the friction resisting the resultant force would also need to be impossibly large. Looking at the equation for friction==>

    F=(mew)*R, where F is friction, (mew) is contact force and R the normal reaction.

    Either (mew) would need to infinite, which means that it's stuck to the floor completely, or R would need to be infinite, meaning that the mass of the object it self would be infinite.

    (Any questions about this I'll be happy to explain more in an e-mail)

  11. The immovable object would be split in half by the unstoppable object, and the unstoppable object would carry on moving after it.

    Or, they both clash to meet in a parallel universe.

  12. A big bang
