Question

two identical bullets are fired one by a light rifle and another by a heavy rifle with the same force,which rifle will hurt the shoulder more.why?

Answer 1

light rifle will hurt the shoulder more because the velocity of bullet is very high. due to newton's 3rd law of motion.....recoil velocity =velocity of bullet and rifle is light that's why it moves very fast in opp. velocity

Answer 2

Answer:

hey mate

Explanation:

As both the bullets are identical and are fired with the same force. So, to reduce recall velocity, we use, heavy rifle so that its heavy mass compensate the large momentum. But for light rifle, recoil velocity will be large due to small mass thus light rifle will hurt more to the shoulder.
