When a 3.8 kg rifle fires a 13 gram bullet it experiences a recoil velocity of 2.4ms-1Calculate the velocity of the bullet?

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

If you get shot twice how long do you have to live?

Survival after being shot twice depends on various factors such as the location of the injury, the organs involved, the severity of the wounds, and the speed of medical assistance. It is not possible to give an accurate estimate of how long someone would have to live without more specific information and a medical assessment from a professional. If you have been shot or someone you know has been shot, it is important to seek immediate medical attention.
