Assume i make a hole into earth from point A to point B. If i jump into Point A hole do i come out from point B? or i will be stuck at the core of earth ?

Ignoring the fact that it's impossible for all the reasons folks above mentioned (you'd burn to a crisp, etc.), you would oscillate back and forth until friction or air resistance slowed you down - eventually you would settle at the center (I'm assuming your hole goes through the center of Earth). When you first enter your hole, you would go faster and faster toward the center of Earth because gravity would be pulling you in. When you reach the center there would be no net force of gravity (the gravitational pull of the left side of Earth would exactly cancel that of the right side) BUT you would still be going really fast. So you would pass the center and keep going till you got to your point B, just about (friction and air resistance would slow you down some, so you might not make it all the way to the surface. As someone else said, it's just like a pendulum.

As soon as you drill that hole and it pokes into the core through the earth's mantle you hit molten rock or magma. (not to be confused with smagma. . which is the residue you get on your wang when you are banging a fine lady) As a result you would burn up long before you even got to the core as this magma would immediatley flow upwards in the hole through the mantle. However. . . if you are wondering about the effects of gravity. .. let us assume or imagine the earth's core was not hot molten rock . . but instead dirt and rock. If a hole was drilled all the way through and you jumped in. . . . you would fall to the earth's center but not continue to the other opening of the hole on the other side of the earth. Gravity would keep you in the direct center. I suggest you spend less time on idiotic questions like this and more time getting laid!

you are able to think of of the g stress like a rollercoaster. a rollercoaster starts off at its height top (i.e. 350ft) and rolls over the area. o.k. here hills become smaller and smaller because it travels whether merely by a small quantity (i.e. 335ft, 310ft, 275ft, 250ft, etc.). the downward g stress can purely pull the rollercoaster at its max speed minus the friction of the motor vehicle. thats no longer considered necessary on your question yet i visit narrate that as properly. what that rollercoaster incredibly quantities to is that it will in no way go as extreme as its preliminary drop except there's a stress (mechanical contained in relation to the rollercoaster) that facilitates to push it bigger. so as to get on your question, in case you jumped right into a hollow for the period of the earth, if the hollow decrease cleanly for the period of the earth and cleared out the magma on the midsection and there became greater than a number of room so which you does no longer hit a wall on the way down, you will possibly make it by to the different area yet no longer thoroughly. you leaping downward might attain terminal speed (optimum speed) however the air around you will possibly create a friction slowing you down somewhat. you will possibly make it to the different area yet to no longer floor point because you does no longer have sufficient stress to make it that far with the friction of the air around and thinking in case you have been on a thoroughly immediately line, you will possibly incredibly leap/fly decrease from side to side from one area of the hollow to the different until you ultimately got here to a end contained in the midsection on the precise midsection of the earth.

If the tunnel goes through the centre of the earth, you will burn. But supposing you will survive this, and the centre of the earth is not fluid, you will go up and down and up and down kindof like a pendulum, but then slowing down.

You will oscillate between both surfaces, the oscillations getting smaller until you rest at center. How long that takes depends on the drag in your tunnel. If there's a vacuum, you could oscillate between the surfaces for ever.

1.) The magma would melt you.

2.) You would die from the pressure.

3.) Gravity will keep you in the center.

you'll become part of the core like on a molecular level seeing how you wouldn't survive the heat down there

Stuck and roasted at the core.

No. You will swing around the center for quite a while....
