Question

When a bullet is fired from a gun, the recoil velocity of the gun is
1)Greater than the velocity of the bullet
2)Less than the velocity of the bullet
3)Equal to the velocity of the bullet

Answer 1

Answer:

When the bullet is fired from a gun the gun gives a kick in the backward direction. The reason behind is the force exerted on the bullet, known as a reaction. Since the mass of gun is large than the mass of a bullet, so the gun recoil with a velocity much lesser than the velocity with which the bullet moves forward.
