If you had a two people either end of a rod 1 light year long and pulled one end would it take a year for the person at the other end to feel it?
No. It would take significantly longer. A pressure wave would not move through the rod at the speed of light. According to the internet, the speed of sound in steel is 4512m/s. I'm not sure if a pressure wave would move through the rod at the the same speed as sound, but assuming that they're on a similar order of magnitude, it would take something like 60,000 years for the guy on the other end of the rod to feel it.
Why don't you feel a push of air when you hear the sound?
When we hear sound we do not feel the pushing the air becasue the sound waves are in form of comprestional waves.
Why acceleration produces at constant speed?
Acceleration by definition is a change in speed, direction, or both. If the speed is constant, the direction could still be changing. You can feel a change in direction, therefore you can feel acceleration even if the speed is constant.
Why do you not feel the speed of the Earth revolving around the Sun?
gravity
If you were alive and went to heaven would you feel gravity like the astronauts if you went at or faster than the speed of light?
First of all, you would have to be dead to go to heaven or hell. So basically, the answers is no.
What is the equivalence principle?
If you were in a spaceship going at a speed of 9.8m/s^2, you would feel exactly same as if you were on the earth.
Would you die instantly if you got slashed by a sword at the speed of sound?
No, you would not die instantly from being slashed by a sword at the speed of sound. The more important factor affecting potential lethality would be the severity and location of the injury, rather than just the speed of the sword. Any injury caused by a sword moving at the speed of sound would be extremely severe and likely fatal, but death would not be instant.
At what percentage of the speed of light must one travel in order to feel like going faster than the speed of light?
At a speed 212 000 kilometers per second you have a relativistic gamma of 1.41, and you will time 365 days of travel when travelling one light-year. You would think that effectively you were going at light-speed! An observer would see you going slower though, and would time your trip to over 516 days.
How do you feel when you get in love?
This is going to sound horribly cliche, but you get butterflies. When you first realize you love someone, you feel exhilirated, like if you just got off a roller coaster. You feel as if you would do anything for that person, just to see them smile.
What would cause a thumping sound that you can feel beneath the driver's side front of a car only when going 10-25 mph?
the thumping could be a tie rod or ball joint if you turn the wheel and creep slowly as you turn and feel a hard knock it might be a tierod while going straight and you feel it it might be a balljoint. look at the vehicle from the front do your wheels look even or do you see one of them leaning outwards? the worst case is a body mount but you'd feel that at any speed.
What does it sound like when a 2000 Chevy cavalier hub is going out?
When the wheel bearing or hub assembly goes bad in any car, you will hear a moaning sound from that wheel which will increase/decrease with speed. Also if you jack up the car, you might feel play in that wheel.

Why cant you feel the earth going around?
because you are travelling at the same speed, there is no acceleration
Why you do not feel the earth rotation?
We don't feel the Earth rotating, because we're rotating with it. If it stopped or sped up, we would certainly feel it. It's like riding in a car; when the car is going straight on a smooth road at the same speed, we don't feel it; only when we turn or slow down or speed up.
What would the mesozoic smell feel and sound like?
It would smell warm and tropical because of the warm, humid climate. It would sound noisy from the insects and loud from the dinosaurs' roaring. The dinosaurs would feel thick and leathery.ect
How many mph do you have to go to break the sound barrier?
Mach 1 is the speed at which you break the sound barrier. The speed of sound, or Mach 1, at sea level and under "standard condition" is:1,116.4 ft/s340.3 m/s761.2 mph1,225.1 km/h
What would cause the steering wheel to shudder when reaching a speed of 50mph then taper off?
Most times it is an out of balance tire, but if balancing does not fix it check out the wheel bearings and suspension parts, a harmonic distortion will cause a shudder at a certain speed. Basicly the vehicle makes a sound or vibration at that speed that amplifies into what you feel.
