Question

A bullet of mass 5 g, is shot Fron a
gun of mass5 kg.The muzzle
velocity of the bullet is 500 m/s.
The recoil, velocity of the gun
is​

Answer 1

Answer:

good luck with everything going

Answer 2

Explanation:

mass of the bullet = 5g(m1)

mass of gun = 5kg

= 1kg = 1000g

= 5kg = 5*1000g

= 5000g(m2)

velocity of the bullet = 500m/s

velocity of gun = ?

the initial momentum is 0

momentum = m1*v1+m2*v2

v2 = - m1*v1/m2

v2 = -5*500/5000

v2 = -2500/5000

v2 = -0.5m/s
