Without getting into the difference between linear and angular momentum,

it should be enough to simply point out that the Earth's mass is equal to

the mass of something like 60 thousand billion billions of you, and that for

equal momentum, the velocities would be in the inverse of the same ratio.

What is the momentum of the recoil of the earth why dont you feel it?

The momentum of the recoil of the Earth due to, say, a person jumping, is extremely small due to the Earth's large mass compared to the person's mass. You do not feel this recoil because the Earth is so massive that the acceleration caused by your jump is negligible in comparison to the Earth's overall mass. This makes the recoil momentum insignificant and not noticeable.

Can earth push an object forward with a reaction?

Earth can push and object forward with a reaction force


Is it reasonable to add the forward speed of the earth to the forward speed of the sun and then to the forward speed of the galaxy in order to find the total forward speed of the earth?

Yes,because it is reasonable


Which two areas of Earth does solar wind move?

Solar wind moves through the interplanetary medium and interacts with Earth's magnetosphere.


What group on the periodic table interacts with group 17?

Group 2 of the periodic table interacts with group 17. Group 17 refers to halogen which are highly reactive. Group 2 refers to alkali earth metals which interacts with halogen well enough.


What correctly describes a way in which Earth's atmosphere interacts with the hydrosphere?

One way in which Earth's atmosphere interacts with the hydrosphere is through the process of evaporation. Water from oceans, lakes, and rivers evaporates into the atmosphere, where it then condenses to form clouds and eventually falls back to the Earth's surface as precipitation, completing the water cycle.


How does the moon interact with the earth and sun?

The moon interacts with the Earth and Sun through gravitational forces. The moon orbits the Earth, causing tides due to its gravitational pull on Earth's oceans. The moon and the Earth both orbit the Sun, with the moon's position affecting Earth's climate and tides.


If you jumped one meter high how far does the earth recoil in the other direction?

Depends on your mass, where you're jumping, etc.


How the water on Earth is a part of Earth's system and interacts with the 4 spheres?

Water on Earth is part of the hydrosphere, which interacts with the geosphere, atmosphere, and biosphere. Water moves between these spheres through processes like evaporation, precipitation, and runoff. It plays a crucial role in shaping landscapes, supporting ecosystems, and influencing weather patterns.


Can earth push an object forward with a reaction force?

Yes, the Earth can push an object forward with a reaction force. This is described by Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When an object exerts a force on Earth, Earth also exerts an equal force back on the object, causing it to move forward.
