How hard of a Hit force does it take to make a mass jump?

[QUOTE="Drakkith, post: 6827869, member: 272035"] I recommend working in terms of mass, momentum, and kinetic energy, not force and mass. Energy is usually much easier to work with than force. Then you can calculate ideal elastic and/or inelastic collisions to quickly get a rough idea of what you'll be working with. Khan Academy page about elastic and inelastic collisions: [URL='https://www.khanacademy.org/science/physics/linear-momentum/elastic-and-inelastic-collisions/a/what-are-elastic-and-inelastic-collisions']Link here[/URL].
