Is there any explanation to this paradox??

What happens when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object?

This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments should further the discussion of math and science.

When posting on Brilliant:

Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

Well its can't be a genuine paradox if we can say the existence of the unmovable object is due to its meet with the unstoppable force. Like infinite gravitational force on a planet makes objects on it unmovable.

Question:- What happens when an unstoppable force meets an unmovable object?

Answer:- Compromise

Suggestion:- Watch the climax of the film 'Dark Knight'.

it is obvious that If the force moves the object, then it is not unmovable and If the force does not, the force is not unstoppable.

There is no such thing as an immovable object. If you move, the object has moved relative to you.
