or say mayb a giant alien push the earth.Originally posted by AMEN567889:subjected to a very huge collision...with..lets say..a very very huge meteor rock...travelling a speed close to that of light?
Erm, some do..Originally posted by venny:space rocks dont travel nowhere close to the speed of light....
its very fast, but near the speed of light, no..... ever heard the theory of relativity? its mass increase wld prolly limit its speed since it would get more n more attracted to nearby masses it passes by n slow it back down.Originally posted by Shotgun:Erm, some do..
not strictly true, the rock leftover from the collision and thus the remains of earth would remain in orbit around the sun... it'd take a black hole, the removal of the sun or (similar to black hole) something of a greater force than the gravitational pull of the sun to remove us from the solar system... I'm not entirely sure what the required acceleration would be from impact but we're talking insane amounts... it's simply not viable that something would come through and knock us out of it, out of our current orbit perhaps but the remainder of earth would still remain in the solar system...Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:Earth will be Shattered into thousands of millions of pieces. All live on Earth will be obliterated at that instance due heat and energy that is released from the magma. In addition, Human are not design to withstand such extreme temperature, impact, shock, and G forces.
Once the Core of the Earth breakdowns, it will thus loses it's ability to stay on the orbit of our solar system.
Earth will become a float mass in space. That's it.
Yes, we all know it's going to be catastrophic..but we won't know what EXACTLY will happen..that's what I mean..Originally posted by venny:u dont need to be a rocket scientist to guess wat will happen when a big and fast rock hit u...... u jus know it....![]()
I would still choose to believe that the earth will shatter, and what's left is an orbit of comets around the sun..like the ring of comets around Saturn..Originally posted by deathbait:obviously with enough force earth can be pushed off it's orbit
it's secondary school level physics
and it wouldn't take even close to the speed of light to do it.
But just because we're knocked off the orbit does not mean that earth will leave the solar system. That's another thing altogether. We'll probably find our way to another stable orbit around the sun.
The G force I am talking is at the point where the collision and milli second after the collision, where G force is still present.Originally posted by Jezmeister:not strictly true, the rock leftover from the collision and thus the remains of earth would remain in orbit around the sun... it'd take a black hole, the removal of the sun or (similar to black hole) something of a greater force than the gravitational pull of the sun to remove us from the solar system...

also you do realise that 'g forces' is the effect of the force of gravity right? 1'g' being equal to 9.8ms-2 on earth, if you shatter the earth gravity is no longer effective and thus it would really be a lack of g forces rather than lots...
