How To Push A Boulder Up A Hill

Can I push a boulder up a hill?

If you're pushing a boulder up a hill, you're going to have some problems with gravity. You're going to have some problems with mass. If you were pushing an empty box up a hill, that's another story because the empty box is very light, doesn't have much mass and it can move easily. A boulder is very big, and that's not even the important part. A boulder has a lot of mass or weight to it, and that mass is going to be what you're going to have to overcome from gravity. So, if you're pushing it up hill, that boulder has all the energy that you put into it. So, if you were to let go, all that energy starts coming out and you are going to be the recipient of that energy and it won't be very pleasant.
