That is too broad of a question to answer definitively. Bullet velocity can range from a few hundred feet per second to several thousand feet per second depending on the gun and the specifications of the cartridge.

Usually supersonic or mach 2 but this varies depending on the grain load the and the weight lead that is being shot.

The speed of a bullet shot out of a gun is dependent on the type of gun being fired and the specifications of the cartridge. Using a rifle, cartridges are propelled at a much faster rate, at around 4000 ft per second. A hand gun will send the bullet out at around 600 feet per second.

A 60grm bullet fired from a 5kg gun leapes with a speed of 500msfind the speed with whitch the gun recoils?

The momentum of the bullet is equal and opposite to the momentum of the gun. Momentum = mv. Bullet =mbvb Gun = mgvg These are equal, with their speeds in opposite directions. mbvb = mgvg vg = vb x mb/mg = vb x (60/5000) = 0.012 vb The recoil speed of the gun is 0.012 the muzzle speed of the bullet. The question says vb is "500ms", which is unclear. If it is meant to indicate "500 meters per second", then the recoil speed is (500 x .012) = 6 m/s.


A bullet is fired from a gun. The speed of the bullet will be about the same as the speed of the recoiling gun if the mass of the bullet equals the mass of the gun?

The mass of a bullet is nowhere near the mass of a gun. A bullet weighs at most a few hundred grains. Most guns weigh at least a couple of pounds, some weigh several pounds (talking about handguns and rifles).


Does horizontal speed affect gravity?

No, horizontal speed does not affect gravity. Gravity acts vertically and is the same for all objects regardless of their horizontal speed. However, horizontal speed can affect the trajectory of an object's motion in relation to gravity.
