A machine gun has a mass of `20kg` It fires `30g` bullets at the rate of 400 bullets/s with a sped of `400m//s` What force must be applied on the gun to keep it in position ?

Answer» Correct Answer - `4800N`
Here, `M = 20 kg, F = `? ,brgt `m = 30 g = 30 xx 10^(-3) kg, n = 400, upsilon = 400m//s`
`F=` rate of change of momentum of bullets
`= mn upsilon = 30 xx 10^(-3) xx 400 xx 400 = 4800 N` .
