A bullet of 10 g leaves the barrel of gun with a velocity of 600 m s -1 . If the barrel of gun is 50 cm long and mass of gun is 3 kg, then value of impulse supplied to the gun will be:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
The formula to calculate the impulse (J) on the gun is given by
J = m(v-u) ...
where, m is the mass, u is the initial velocity and v is the final velocity of the bullet. Substitute the values of the known parameters into equation to calculate the required impulse.
= 6Ns
