No, when you jump, the world does not recoil downward. According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When you push off the ground to jump, the ground exerts an equal and opposite force on you, propelling you upward. The Earth is much more massive than you are, so the effect of your jump on the Earth's movement is negligible.

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.


How do you get across the lava on Astro Knights Island?

On the Fire Planet, you have to jump to the rocks on the lava geysers. On your 4th jump, the next rock is out of sight when you jump, so just make sure it is below you. On the tricky 6th jump, jump when BOTH rocks are heading DOWNWARD.


If you make the electron jump downward then return it to the outer ring what do you notice about the photon released or absorbed?

When an electron jumps downward to a lower energy state in an atom, it releases energy in the form of a photon which is emitted. When the electron returns to the outer ring, it absorbs energy in the form of a photon. The energy of the photon absorbed is equal to the energy of the photon released during the downward jump.


What is a pike jump in trampolining?

A pike jump is where cheerleaders will jump off the ground and their legs are out in front of them with straight legs and pointed toed. Their heads face downward and their arms are straight out in front of them and parallel to each other.


How do you get past the geysers on Astro Knights Island?

Jump to each rock on the lava geysers when it is below you (even though you may not see it). When you jump from the 5th to the 6th, jump when both of them are moving downward, so that the platform falls right under you.

How do you get to the sixth lava rock on the fire planet?

You can skip the 5th platform and jump hard to the 6th (if you're lucky). Or don't skip it. Jump to the 5th one, then jump to the 6th one while both are moving downward. (Easy when you know how.) Jump when both rocks are moving down.

What is the prefix of recoil?

The prefix of "recoil" is "re-".


When you jumpupward the world does in fact recoil downward Why can't this motion be noticed?

The recoil motion is not noticed because of the conservation of momentum and the difference in mass. youxvu + earthxve=0 Say you are 60 kg mass and the earth is 6e24kg mass then the earth's velocity is ve=60/6e24 vu = vue-23 . If you jumpwed a meter a second then the earth moves only 10 picopico meters/second. This is very hard to notice, a 10 trillionth trillionth of a meter/second.

Is there an item to stop recoil?

You can never stop recoil. You can reduce the felt effects, but, the recoil will still be there.
