Question

the recoil of a gun after firing a shell is due to the principle of conservation of- a) mass,b)liner momentum,c) angular momentum,d)kinetic energy​

Answer 1

Answer:

b- linear momentum

Explanation:

because m1v1=m2v2

Answer 2

Answer:

The concept of conservation of linear momentum causes a gun to recoil after firing a shell. As a result, c is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The quantity called momentum that characterises motion, in an isolated collection of objects never changes, according to the conservation of momentum principle; that is, the overall momentum of a system remains constant.

In collisions and explosions, momentum is conserved.

When a cannon is fired, the cannonball accelerates forward and the gun accelerates backwards. The overall momentum is zero before the cannon is discharged
