Question

iii) Recoiling of a cannon after firing a shot is an example of
a) I law of motion
b)ll law of motion
c) III law of motion
d)Law of gravitation
​

Answer 1

Answer:

This is called the principle of conservation of momentum . Momentum is conserved in collisions and explosions . Conservation of momentum explains why a gun or cannon recoils backwards when it is fired. When a cannon is fired, the cannon ball gains forward momentum and the cannon gains backward momentum.

Answer 2

Answer:

action due to the gun is equal to reaction
