From a rifle of mass 4kg, a bullet of mass 50g is fired with a initial velocity of 20m/s.Calculate initali velocity of the rifle?

Open in App

Solution

Since no external force acts on the rifle, the change in momentum is zero.

Mometum of rifle = Momentum of bullet.

4 x V = 0.050 x 20

V = 0.25 m/S.

This is the recoil velocity of rifle.
