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.
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.
Newton's 3rd law: for every action there is an equal and opposite direction reaction. The force of the bullet under acceleration reacts against the gun and therefore the gun jerks against the person holding it.

When a bullet is fired from a gun, Newton's third law is applied as the bullet and the gun experience equal and opposite forces. The force pushing the bullet out of the gun is equal to the force pushing the gun backward, causing recoil. This relationship between the bullet and the gun follows the principle of momentum conservation.
No. The recoil from such a gun would kill you. action and reaction. Bullet would stand still, gun would move.
=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......................=
The bore of a gun relates to the diameter of the hole in the barrel - and in turn the diameter of the bullet the gun can fire.
No. Yes. All you have to do is strike the bullet's primer with a sharp corner of the gun.
cocking a gun is when you pull the slide of a gun back and forwards once to get a bullet into the chamber to fire
No

IIRC, yes.
