Question

the bullet fired from a gun has momentum which is
a) equal to recoil of gun

Answer 1

Answer:

the bullet fired from the gun has momentum equal to the momentum of the gun.

• this is obtained from the law of conservation of momentum which states that total initial momentum is equal to total final momentum when no external force is applied.

please mark my answer as brainliest.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Recoil of a Gun: When the bullet is fired from the gun, it gives a large velocity to the bullet in the forward direction. Since no external force acts on the system, so the momentum of the system (gun + bullet) must be zero after firing. Thus, gun moves backwards with a momentum equal to the momentum of the bullet.
