Ok, I'm thinking about these pendulums that normally have 5 weights (bobs) so when you pull one out and let it fall, it hits the other and the force is immediately transferred to the last one, lifting it up.
Now, if you have 10000 masses in a row, would the force also transfer immediately from the first to the last bob?
Wouldnt that break the speed of light rule?
Can we consider all the masses as a single one because they're in contact with one another?
Would it take any time for energy to transfer through all the masses?
