So what happends when the unstoppable force meets the immovable object?

First off this isnt spam duo so I am allowed to post here.

I imagine that they would remain motionless. The force is still exerting itself on the immovable object so it isnt being stopped. The object is just not moving

But, that means that the unstoppable force would be stopped.

In my opinion, the force would be absorbed into the object, which would quickly explode everything around it since the force could not fit inside the object. I'll explain in more detail if you don't get it.

No the force would not be stopped. It would just not have any effect on the onject as the object is exerting an equal and opposite force

Hmm, really depends on what material the objects are made of - the object which is softer will be crushed.

Paradoxical argument. No real answer as given terms are impossible. Any resulting answer will contradict given terms.

I disagree. If you push on a wall you are exerting force upon it. The FOCE itself is not being stopped. The object exerting itself is not really going anywhere but the force is still happening. The immovable object, lets say the wall that your pushing on, is not being moved and is exerting an equal and opposite force. Therefore the unstoppable force was never "stopped" and the immovable object never "moved"

unstoppable force vs immovable object
