Question: If everyone in the world jumped at the same time in a particular spot (say Leicester) would there be any movement from the Earth in a particular direction?
I went to University in Leicester, and I know if the football team wins the league then for sure, everyone will jump at the same time in excitement!
According to Newton, yes there will be an effect on the Earth. But it will be so so so small, that no-one will notice. But we might feel it locally in terms of a small earthquake.
