What is recoil velocity?
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.
If you are traveling at the speed of a bullet and then fired a bullet in the opposite direction what happens?
1). Your speed in the forward direction should increase somewhat, since the recoil of the shot adds to your momentum. 2). The bullet you fire in the reverse direction leaves the muzzle with full muzzle velocity and momentum in the reverse direction ... in your frame of reference. Viewed by an observer in the stationary frame of reference ... the one in which you are moving at the speed of a bullet ... the one you fire just dribbles out of the muzzle and falls straight to the ground.

.351 km/hr
What is a sentence with the word recoil?

A sentence for recoil?
Example sentence - The rifle has more recoil than I expected.
When you shoot a gun what's it called when it bounces up?
It's called "recoil" or sometimes "muzzle blast", though muzzle blast has more to do with flash and smoke than recoil.
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.
What is recoil velocity?

What is the difference between recoil operated gas operated shot guns?
Recoil operated uses recoil from firing to cycle the action. Gas operated uses gas from firing to cycle the action.
What does a muzzle brake do to an air rifle?
It is used to reduce the recoil of the rifle and as a grip for cocking the barrel.

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
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.
