Question

What would happen if an unstoppable force hit an immovable object?

Answer 1

It would destroy everything because of the kinitic energey of the continuously moving force against the immovable object.

Answer 2

What do you mean by "an unstoppable force"?  Forces don't move, they are vectors that act upon a mass to give an acceleration.

If you mean an unstoppable object.  Then the object would simply bounce off the immovable object and continue at the same speed a different direction.

Answer 3

this question was asked of Marylin Savant a number of years ago in Parade Magazine.

this link gives some decent insight on the issue

Answer 4

Speaking from a Quantum Physical perspective, the most like situation would be for the particles and molecules to bond on a sub-atomic level, creating what is essentially know as "The Big Bang". When molecules were put through such an incredible amount of pressure, heat, and speed where they were forced to bond molecularly, creating new elements.

Answer 5

This is what i think would happen:

BOOM!!!!!!

immovable object destroyed.

Answer 6

"Unstoppable" forces don't exist; anytime a force is exerted on ANYTHING, there is a reactive force exerted BACK on that force.  Therefore, it would defy the very definition of a force.

Answer 7

they would both get an ouchy

LOL!

Answer 8

that unstoppable force will be stoppted, causing it great damage especially if it moving at a high speed

Answer 9

The two forces would create a quantum flux discharge and would theoretically cause a tear in the fabric of space/time creating either a worm hole or possibly a black hole. Either effect would discharge large amounts of dark matter as the two unstoppable/immovable forces collide. You would probably also see a lot of people wearing KFC buckets on their heads while hopping on one leg and speaking backwards.

Answer 10

the unstoppable force would go bend around or even bounce off the immovable object.

Answer 11

there would be a great flash of light and energy as the force impacted the object

Answer 12

There are no unstoppable forces or immovable objects.  Think on a larger scale.  Even a star or a galaxy can be moved and forces don't move.
