What is the total momentum of the bullet and gun before firing a bullet of mass m and velocity v?
zero
2mv
mv/2
mv
As velocity is zero before firing; hence momentum is also zero.
The mass of the bullet is 2 kg and velocity of bullet after firing is 25 ms−1. If initial velocity of gun and bullet is zero, what is the final momentum of gun after firing?
What would be the relation between velocity of gun and bullet, if the mass of gun is less than the mass of bullet?
What would be the relation between the velocity of gun and bullet, iIf the mass of gun is less than the mass of bullet?
