What are the movements of the bullet after leaving the muzzle of the gun?

The bullet is moving forward, and is spinning. As the bullet moves away from the gun, it falls towards the earth from gravity.


Why does the bullet and gun have different acceleration?

The gun weighs MUCH more than the bullet.


If you fired a gun in a vacuum would the bullet travel further than if you shot it on earth?

Yes, because there will be no air resistance.


Why does a gun put spin on it's bullet when the gun is fired?

Because a spinning bullet travels in a straighter line, for further, than a bullet which is not spinning. So, in a word, "accuracy" is why a gun puts a spin on a bullet. Not all of the guns put spin on the bullet though. Those that do have rifled barrels(grooved on inside). There are also smooth bore guns that do not cause the projectile to spin.


When did the gun get to hold more than one bullet?

Which gun?


Why cant you see a bullet fired by a gun?

That's because it moves too fast.


Why is the speed of a recoiling gun less than the speed of the fired bullet?

Newton said "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." The action is pushing the bullet in one direction. Reaction is the gun being pushed in the other. The energy is speed times mass. The gun masses much more than the bullet, and so will move proportionately slower than the bullet. Which is a very good thing- or the recoil of the gun would kill the shooter.


Which wave is formed when a bullet fired from a gun?

=it is newtons third law of motion which states=="for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction"==when a gun is fired the bullet moves in the forward direction which is action whereas the gun recoils in the backward direction which is the reaction......................=


Why a bullet shot from a gun goes well inside a wooden block but a throw by hand does not?

The bullet out of the gun will be travelling a lot faster, and with a lot more force than the bullet thrown by hand.


When a gun is firedwhy it recoils?

Newton's Law- for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the bullet is pushed forward out of the barrel, then the gun is pushed back by an equal amount. That is recoil, or "kick". The amount is based on the weight and speed of the bullet, and the weight of the gun. All things being equal, a light bullet kicks less than a heavy bullet, and a heavy gun kicks less than a lighweight gun.


How the velocity of recoil of a gun fire is 1'100 times the velocity of bullet if mass of a gun is 100 times of mass of bullet?

Newton said "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." The action is pushing the bullet in one direction. Reaction is the gun being pushed in the other. The energy is speed times mass. The gun masses much more than the bullet, and so will move proportionately slower than the bullet. Which is a very good thing- or the recoil of the gun would kill the shooter.
