A 10 g bullet is shot from a 5 kg gun with velocity of 400m/sec. what is the recoil velocity of the gun​

Answer»

Explanation:

WE HAVE :

Mass of bullet,m=10g

VELOCITY of bullet,v=400m/s

Mass of GUN,M=5kg=5000g

RECOIL velocity of gun,V=??

_____________________________

According to the law of conservation of linear momentum,,

initial momentum= -final momentum

=> mv= -MV

=>10×400= -5000V

=>4000/(-5000)=V

=>V= -0.8 m/s

Therefore,, Recoil velocity of gun,V=0.8m/s.

-ve SIGN tells that recoil velocity of the gun is opposite of the velocity of bullet.
