- A 4.00 g bullet has a muzzle velocity of 230 m/s when fired by a rifle with a weight of 40.0 N. (a) Determine the recoil speed (in m/s) of the rifle. Choose a sign convention and see if you can write a statement of conservation of momentum that will allow you to determine the desired quantity. Don't forget that you have been given the weight rather than the mass of the rifle. m/s (b) If a marksman with a weight of 775 N holds the rifle firmly against his shoulder, determine the recoil speed (in m/s) of the shooter and rifle. Your approach to part (a) will also work for part (b). The only difference is that the mass of the marksman must now be included. m/sarrow_forwardA battleship that is 5.00 x 107 kg and is originally at rest fires a 1300-kg artillery shell horizontally with a velocity of 550 m/s.

Calculate its recoil velocity in meters per second. 0.0143 m/s (b) Calculate the increase in internal kinetic energy in joules (that is, for the ship and the shell). This energy is less than the energy released by the gun powder – significant heat transfer occurs.
