thank in advance.

you mean "recoil"?

Well, every particle must recoil due to energy and momentum conservation.

can you show me a visual example of it? picture or video in action?

I don't care what's name of that thing.

please consider that physics is not my field and i'm noob.

I don't understand your question. Can you give more details, or an example of what you're asking about?

ok give me time to sketch it, it's 3:00am here in the philippines.

i need to sleep.

if my conclusion is correct then my theory is possible.

Thanks in advance. see you tomorrow guys.
