When a gun is fired, the bullet is propelled forward due to the rapid expansion of gases produced by the burning gunpowder. This action generates an equal and opposite reaction, known as recoil, which pushes the gun—and the shooter—backward. The amount of recoil depends on factors like the gun's caliber and weight, as well as the shooter's stance and grip. Essentially, the shooter experiences a backward force as a direct consequence of the bullet's forward motion.

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.
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.

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 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.
Explain in terms of momentum conservation When a gun is fired the shooter describes the sensation of the gun kicking.?
When a gun is fired, the bullet propels forward with a certain momentum due to the force applied by the expanding gases in the gun barrel. According to the principle of momentum conservation, the gun must also experience an equal but opposite momentum in the backward direction. This backward momentum causes the sensation of "kick" felt by the shooter as the gun recoils.
