When a gun is fired, the projectile goes one way, the gun goes in the opposite direction. That is recoil. Recoil velocity would be the speed at which the gun moves when it recoils. Since the gun is heavier than the projectile, it will recoil more slowly than the projectile moves.

What is the Difference between muzzle velocity and recoil velocity?
muzzle velocity is the velocity of bullet and recoil velocity is the velocity of gun.

What is the Difference between muzzle velocity and recoil velocity?
muzzle velocity is the velocity of bullet and recoil velocity is the velocity of gun.
Does recoil velocity answer involve in the calculation of final kinetic energy?
Whether you need it depends on the specific situation, but the recoil velocity does affect the total energy.
Velocity in recoil of the recoiling parts of guns?
Depdends on weight of gun, caliber, load and velocity of projectile
What is the Velocity of recoil in recoiling parts of guns?
Depends entirely on the caliber, weight and velocity of the projectile along with the weight of the firearm
What is the recoil of a 5.54 gun?
No way to answer without knowing the weight of the weapon, weight of the projectile, velocity of the projectile
How does a rifle demonstrate Newton's third law of motion?
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.
Why it is difficult for a firefighter to hold hose on which eject large amount of water at high velocity?
There may be recoil from the hose.
A rifle is fired and you are able to measure both the muzzle velocity of the bullet as well as the recoil velocity of rifle how do you explain the fact that the forward velocity of the bullet is great?
The forward velocity of the bullet is greater than the recoil velocity of the rifle because of Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is fired forward with high velocity, the rifle experiences a recoil in the opposite direction but with lower velocity due to the mass difference between the bullet and the rifle.
What is the recoil of a 308?
assuming that you talking about a .308 Winchester or the 7.62 NATO round recoil is factor of pure physics the lighter the weapon the greater the free recoil (kick).the heavier the bullet the greater the kick. the higher the velocity the more kick.there are many factors involved in calculating the recoil of any firearm.what does the gun weigh ?what is the barrel length? what is the bullet weight? is the gun a bolt action or auto-matic ? is it gas or recoil operated ? does it have a recoil reducer of some type? how effective is this recoil reducer? knowing the interior ballistics of a cartridge is only the beginning of calculating the recoil and barrel flip of any firearm. in my observation over many years most .308 guns have recoil effect of between 7-15 foot pounds of free recoil energy.
A rifle of mass 2 kg is suspended by strings the rifle fires a bullet of mass 0.01 kg at a speed of 200 ms the recoil velocity of the rifle is what?
I think this would be a problem of momentum. p=mv so if the momentum of the bullet is 20 (.01x200=20) then the recoil velocity should equal 10 m/sec (2x10=20). Good old Newtons 3rd Law.
