How does shot put display inertia?

In shot put, inertia is demonstrated when the shot put remains at rest until a force (throwing motion) is applied to it. Once the shot put is in motion, it will continue moving in a straight line until acted upon by an external force, such as air resistance or gravity. This showcases the concept of inertia as described by Newton's first law of motion.


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


How many times can the human get shoot?

Depending on where the person is shot, the maximum being three times if they are not shot in any of the vital organs. These include the brain, heart, stomach, liver, lungs, and spine. Unless you are the rapper 50 Cent, then you can be shot nine times in face.

How many shots in a 60 oz of alcohol?

It depends on the size of the shot glass typically being used. For example, a standard shot glass is 1.5 oz, so there would be approximately 40 standard shots in a 60 oz bottle of alcohol.
