How does the hammer of a gun work?
hammer is spring pushed and hits the firing pin to fire the cartridge.
Why the gun leans backward when the bullet fire from the gun?
It's the recoil from the force of the bullet being fired. The gun powder pushes the bullet forward and also equally pushes the gun back into your hand.
Give a short example of equal and opposite pairs?
Perhaps forces.When you fire a gun, you have an explosion of gunpowder that ejects the bullet forward at a high velocity. The gun kicks back in an opposite direction from the firing with a force equal to that which expelled the bullet, but in the opposite direction.Another example might be ice skating (without braking). If one person pushes the other backward... the pushing person will also be pushed backward with equal force. Acceleration/velocity, of course would be dependent on the relative weights.
How far will a bullet travel if triggered outside of a gun barrel?
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.
Why do you get thrown back by a gun?
The action is the bullet being pushed out of the barrel. The equal and opposite reaction is the gun being pushed back.
If someone fires a gun at a police officer are they able to fire back?
Yes. That would be the reason they are armed.

Can you leave co2 cartrige in gun?
It's really not recommended. By doing so you leave the gun pressurized and this may rupture the seal. It also makes it possible for someone else to accidently fire the gun.
What is term used when a gun pushes back into you after being fired?
RecoilNewton's Third Law states that for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction. When you fire, say, a rifle, the butt of the gun is pushed into your shoulder. That is a reaction to the bullet's being propelled (accelerated) down the barrel of the gun. That reaction is known as recoil.
What happens when you shoot a gun in space?
The gun will fire- gunpowder does not need external oxygen to burn. Assuming that you are in weightless conditions, when you fire the gun, you would be pushed in the opposite direction- action and reacting. If it is a rifled firearm, you would also twist in a direction opposite the spiral of the rifling. The bullet will go a very long way until it hits something, or encounters the gravity well of a plants, moon, or star.
What is a fire arm?
A Fire Arm is a gun
What happens when you fire a gun into the air?
First of all it is against the law to fire a gun into the air. Second of all you have no idea where the bullet will come down. It may possibly injure or kill someone. It is not only irresponsible but just plain foolish to do such a thing.
