He should push it gently.
This is because the forces of resistance this situation are minimal, so the rock will not slow as it would on Earth. Kicking the rock may result in it travelling too fast and hitting something else, causing damage. Moreover, the rock could start rebounding off of surfaces and create havoc.

Earth's gravitational pull just got threetimes stronger! what happens to your weight/
OLga [1]
Hold on and let's discuss this realistically.

Because of gravity, there are two forces between the Earth and me. One draws me toward the Earth. The strength of that force is what I call my "weight". The other force draws the Earth toward me, and has the same strength.

The strength of these forces depends on the masses of the Earth and me. If the strength just tripled, that means that at least one of us just picked up a lot more mass. If the Earth suddenly became three times as massive, then the weight of everything and everybody on it would suddenly triple, and I'm pretty sure it would be the end of all of us before too long.

If it was only MY mass that suddenly tripled, that would mean that I had gone tearing through my house and the neighbour's house, eating everything in sight including the 2 couches, 3 dogs, and 6 TVs. Naturally, just as you would expect, my weight changed from 207 to 621, and my skin is stretched really tight.

<span>The two factors that act on parachutes are gravity and air resistance, which is also called drag. Gravity acts as a force to pull parachutes down to the surface of the Earth, while air resistance generates movement in the opposite direction of the falling parachute, and essentially pushes the parachute upward. hope this helps!:)</span>
