Why would a bullet pop out of the chamber of a 22 long rifle while trying to cycle the gun?
Sounds like the gun already had a round in the chamber. One should always make sure the gun is unloaded before storage.
When did the gun get to hold more than one bullet?
Which gun?
Why does one need to reload a gun?
Guns are only able to hold a certain amount of ammunition. Once one has fired the gun one bullet has left the chamber. Once all of the ammunition is gone, one will need to reload the gun in order to fire off more ammunition. If ammunition is not reloaded, then the gun will make a noise, but nothing will happen.
Can snapping cap mean a dysfunctional bullet?
No. First- let's be clear about this. The bullet is just the piece of lead that shoots out the barrel. The bullet + brass casing + gun powder + primer is called a CARTRIDGE. A dysfunctional cartridge is called either a dud or a mis-fire. It is bad for the gun when you go through the motions of firing the weapon without a cartridge actually being in the chamber. It causes unwanted wear and metal fatigue on the hammer and firing pin assembly. A snapping cap (sometimes called a snap or snapper cap) has the same dimensions as a cartridge but has no primer, no gunpowder, and no bullet. It is a true dummy cartridge...one that you place in the gun's chamber so that you can "fire" the gun without harming it.

Why is a shell for a gun called a bullet?
Actually, the proper name is "cartridge." The term bullet is an extremly common but incorrect usage when referring to a cartridge. The term bullet only refers to the piece of lead that comes out of the barrel when the gun is fired. The bullet is one component of the cartridge.
How the velocity of recoil of a gun fire is 1'100 times the velocity of bullet if mass of a gun is 100 times of mass of bullet?
Newton said "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." The action is pushing the bullet in one direction. Reaction is the gun being pushed in the other. The energy is speed times mass. The gun masses much more than the bullet, and so will move proportionately slower than the bullet. Which is a very good thing- or the recoil of the gun would kill the shooter.

A few feet. If not contained within a gun barrel, such as being tossed into a fire, the bullet will be pushed in one direction, and the cartridge case in another.
How does an automatic gun work?
When the gun is fired the shell casing is ejected by the blow-back gas and the next bullet is automatically loaded. All in one motion. The next bullet is now ready to fire.
