The formula is, quite simply, that the momentum before and after the shot is the same. You can assume that the momentum before the shot is zero (because the rifle and the bullet were not moving), so after the shot, the total momentum will also be zero.
The momentum of the bullet fired from a rifle is greater than the momentum of the rifle's recoil. This is because the bullet has a higher velocity and mass compared to the rifle, resulting in a greater momentum.
Since momentum is conserved in this system, the initial momentum of the rifle and bullet is equal to the final momentum of the rifle. You can find the recoil velocity of the rifle by setting up the equation: (2 kg) * V = (0.01 kg * 200 m/s). Solve for V to find the recoil velocity of the rifle.
A .177 caliber air rifle has very little recoil.
The recoil of the rifle bruised her shoulder.The recoil sent him flying backwards.
A rifle experiences backward kick, or recoil, when a bullet is fired due to Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is propelled forward out of the barrel, the rifle experiences an equal force pushing backward. This recoil results from the rapid expulsion of gas and the mass of the bullet moving forward, leading to the rifle moving backward in response. The amount of recoil is influenced by the bullet's mass and the velocity at which it is fired.
Depends on your sensitivity to recoil and the type of rifle and load used. Generally, not bad at all.
to reduce recoil
It is a rife that dose not have recoil.
Before the shot, total momentum of the rifle/bullet system is zero. Momentum is conserved, so must total zero after the shot. Magnitude of momentum = m V (mass, speed); we'll take care of direction independently. Momentum of the rifle: m V = (3.8) x (2.4) = 9.12 kg-m/sec backwards. We need momentum of the bullet = 9.12 kg-m/sec forward m V = 9.12 ===> V = ( 9.12 / m ) = ( 9.12 / 0.013 ) = 701.54 m/s forward
Example sentence - The rifle has more recoil than I expected.
When you fire a rifle,the recoil kick is introducing you to Newton's Third Law.If you you don't hold the rifle properly to absorb the recoil in your whole body, the recoil will leave a nasty bruise mark; (mv) recoil = (mv) bullet. You want to minimize the recoil velocity by maximizing the recoil mass=your rifle + your body. Getting the [proper stance and grip will raise the recoil mass the reduce the impact on your body.
Pull the rifle firmly into your shoulder. Fire standing rather than prone. Use a recoil pad. Change to a lighter recoiling cartridge.
