bedtime thought: how much mass (m1) to get a 1cm/s acceleration on a frictionless surface from 5 feet away. m2 = large human body, 113 kg

welp that is fucking impossible. new value engineered plan: move a young child with r = 4cm. m = large mass p = small mass = 5 year old child = 39 lb = 17.69 kg F = p * a a = 1cm/s^2 F = 0.1769 N (at 1cm/s^2, just multiply p by 0.1) All that value engineering takes the idea of "accelerate a human being towards another object on earth using its gravity from "fucking impossible" to "batshit crazy".
