What would happen if everyone on earth jumped at the same time? | Amazing Science Experiments

What would happen if all 8 billion people on Earth jumped at the exact same time? In this episode, Andy explores this wild question using science concepts like Newton's third law, momentum, and mass to discover if we could move the Earth, cause earthquakes, or create giant windstorms with one massive synchronized jump.What We LearnedNewton's third law - "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"The Earth weighs approximately 5 with 24 zeros after it (5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000) kilogramsAll humans combined weigh about 496 billion kilogramsMomentum depends on both mass and speedSeismographs are scientific instruments that can detect tiny vibrations in the EarthReal earthquakes happen when tectonic plates move against each otherThere was an internet event called "World Jump Day" that jokingly tried to change Earth's orbitQuiz QuestionsWhat is Newton's third law about?How many zeros are there in the Earth's weight when written in kilograms?What special scientific instrument might be able to detect everyone jumping at once?Be sure to listen to the podcast to find the answers!Fun ComparisonsHumans trying to move Earth is like a ladybug trying to push a school busThe impact of our jump compared to an earthquake is like a tiny bubble pop compared to a giant explosionThe air we'd push would be like a puff compared to a hurricaneIt's like an elephant not noticing a flea doing jumping jacks on its backLearn MoreCheck out more about Newton's laws of motionLearn about seismographs and how they measure earthquakesDiscover more about Earth's mass and gravityConnect With UsGot a curious question?
