If you were able to either go so fast everyone was going slow or have time slow down...

if someone were to have been lets say skiing downhill at 100 miles an hour and you slowed down time so to you he appeared to be standing still....how hard would it be to move him from his path. would he be like any inanimate object just standing there or would it take the same amount of effort to move him 5 feet sideways from a 100mph vector as it would normally, you just have more time?

anyone sober enuf to get this?

I think the universe would still be situated in the normal flow of time, so it would take a large amount of force to move him, because you would be moving him very fast.

Not quite.

yes but if force=mass x acceleration and you were accelerating so much more than them

wait, what

exactly

It would take the same amount of force to move him the same distance. However, due to the fact that the time you were operating in (and seemed 'normal' to you) was stretched, it would theoretically allow you 'longer' to move him, and the displacement of force over time would make it seem easier to you.

so that's how they punch stuff into oblivion in the matrix

I would think that any touch or any change in his direction would send him flying as soon as time was returned to norm.

Makes sense to me. And Bobby's a scientist!

I think this would only apply if you slowed/stopped time pushed him and started time at the same time. If you accelerated fast enough to where everyone else appeared to be slower, then that wouldn't happen.

I think the question is. Is anybody as drunk as the OP to get this?
