When a bullet is fired from a rifle does the bullet have a greater momentum and kinetic energy than the rifle?
Yes, when a bullet is fired from a rifle, the bullet typically has greater momentum and kinetic energy compared to the rifle. This is due to the bullet's higher velocity and lower mass compared to the rifle.
Does the bullet fired from a recoiling rifle have a greater velocity compared to the keyword?
Yes, the bullet fired from a recoiling rifle typically has a greater velocity compared to the rifle itself.
Which is greater the momentum of a bullet fired from a rifle or the momentum of the rifle's recoil?
The momentum of the bullet fired from a rifle is greater than the momentum of the rifle's recoil. This is because the bullet has a higher velocity and mass compared to the rifle, resulting in a greater momentum.
When a rifle is fired how does the size of the force of the rifle on the bullet compare with the force of the bullet on the rifle how does the acceleration of the rifle compare with that of the bullet?
The force of the rifle on the bullet and the force of the bullet on the rifle are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, according to Newton's third law of motion. However, the mass of the rifle is much larger than the mass of the bullet, so the acceleration of the rifle is much smaller compared to the acceleration of the bullet.
When a bullet is fired from a riffle?
Not quite a question yet. If you are asking about the physics, when a rifle fires a bullet, the ACTION of the bullet being pushed out of the barrel is equaled by the REACTION- or recoil, of the rifle pushing to the rear.
When a bullet is fired from a rifle?
When a bullet is fired from a rifle, a chemical reaction in the gunpowder ignites, rapidly expanding gases build up pressure, and the bullet is propelled out of the barrel at high speed. The rifling in the barrel causes the bullet to spin, improving accuracy and stability. Gravity will eventually cause the bullet to drop due to gravity and air resistance.
What is the velocity of 303 rifle bullet?
2441 feet per second when fired from the British SMLE rifle. Velocity will vary when fired from rifles with a longer or shorter barrel.
When a rifle is fired horizontally the bullet leaves the barrel and doesnt drop at all for the first 35 meters of flight Is this true?
No, this statement is not true. When a rifle is fired horizontally, the bullet immediately begins to drop due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. The rate of drop will depend on the muzzle velocity of the bullet and the distance it has traveled.
Why does a rifle give backward kick on firing a bullet?
A rifle experiences backward kick, or recoil, when a bullet is fired due to Newton's third law of motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is propelled forward out of the barrel, the rifle experiences an equal force pushing backward. This recoil results from the rapid expulsion of gas and the mass of the bullet moving forward, leading to the rifle moving backward in response. The amount of recoil is influenced by the bullet's mass and the velocity at which it is fired.
Could a bullet be fired from one rifle down the barrle of another?
It has happened. During the American Civil War, a Union rifleman fired his rifle, and the projectile collided with the projectile fired by a Confederate rifleman - in the barrel of the Confederate's rifle. IIRC, that rifle was displayed in the Museum of American History.
How Did the Red Baron died?
He was shot down by a bullet in his heart, apparently fired by a rifle on the ground.
What is the largest bullet type?
BULLET is the term used for the projectile fired from a cartridge. The largest civilian rifle cartridge is the .950 JD Jones.
