    First of all, there's nothing like it....even if there was to be one, it probably would end up, damaging/deforming the object....or scientifically that depends on the amount of unstoppable force & mass of the unmovable object, whichever is greater would have more impact.

    Say, if the unstoppable force was greater than the unmovable object , it would end up damaging or destroying the object. And if the unmovable mass is greater, then it would slow the force down, which would increase the pressure & perhaps, this too would result in damage/deformation of the object.

    *The following conditions are only assumptions of the supposed properties of the barriers between dimensions and are only possible in theory.

    You would break the law (of the universe) ultimately creating a "hole" in space. It is theorized (this question has been debated before) that the hole (to another dimension) would be created from the result of the particles of the unstoppable force "sliding" through those of the unmoveable object, behaving as they normally would in the fourth dimension.

    The cause of the sliding was determined from the fact that the force, in order to be unstoppable, could not be changed by direction or form of discharge of energy (sound, light,heat ect.) in any way. The unmoveable object would also have to stay where it was in reation to the approaching force in order to be unmoveable.

    Was this the answer you were looking for?

    i heard that question before but couldn't remember where and what the answer is. (not in Yahoo Q!A) any way i have thought of an answer and thanks for the chance to say it.

    if unstoppable force meets unmovable object, both energy will desolve in one and will cause another unimaginable force that is too big and will destroy everything,so there is nothing left but emptiness.

    yeah that's what i thought.

    You can't have it both ways! Either the "unstoppable" force isn't unstoppable, or the "unmoveable" object isn't unmoveable.

    On earth, one of the 'ultimatums' have to give! Some people think their cars are unstoppable until they hit a bridge abutment or something that is solid! Then the force stops!

    Gangsta,

    The unstoppable force becomes

    twice as strong when opposed to

    an unmovable object.

    Look at how they test car crashes.

    That would give you and idea of

    the strength/force you are talking about.

    Not nice to watch....

    The unmovable object will be heated up

    All the energy from the force will be converted to thermal and heat the object

    by definition an unstoppable or irrisistable force CANNOT ever meet an unmovable object (and vice versa)

  • 1 decade ago

    the amount of energy that the unstopable force carries is transformed into pure energy and the unmovable object might change it´s aspect or constitution. the energy released might make an explotion.

  • The unstoppable force would most likely shatter and continue moveing (sideways)
