I think your first sentence is sufficiently self explanatory. Thank yu.
Since we are on the topic of 2 different cans (one is empty and another one is full) traveling through vacuum. The question is Momentum = Mass x Velocity applicable in Vacuum/Absolute Void condition? In layman's term: WEIGHTAGE of a certain object (the two cans) affects the travel speed, in a sense, right?
Regards, Joey
p.s: "Cheesenium", thanks for the enlightenment. I knew the difference between mass and weight but it didn't came to me as I addressed the reply. MUAHAHAHA~~~
This is a trick question. Disregard of speed or force, if time is not a contraint, both can will travel endlessly because there is no friction in space! Just that one may reach earlier than the other (which was not specify in the question).Since we are on the topic of 2 different cans (one is empty and another one is full) traveling through vacuum.

if you dug a hole straight down - from one end of the earth to the other end, would you be able to fall from this hole all the way to the other side?
This is one massive mystery yet to be solved. There are many theories. If we could actually dig a hole and test it, scientist would solve one of the biggest physic mystery ever!!
