Hello!
By applying the third law of motion, your force and the wall's force are equal.
I hope this helps you! Have a great day!

The conservation of momentum states that the total momentum in a system is constant if there is no external force acting on the system. The total momentum in the gun bullet system is 0 so it must stay that way.
The momentum of the bullet is mv = 0.015*500=7.5
The momentum of the gun must be the same to keep the total momentum of the system equal to zero, so we know that p = 7.5 for the gun.
Substituting this in we get:
7.5=3.1x
x=7.5/3.1
x=2.42
So the speed of the gun is 2.4m/s.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Water contains ions that can conduct electricity and if touched it can cause harm (aka electrocution).
The answer is 60 mph.
The speed (v) is distance (d) per time (t): v = d/t
Car A:
v1 = ?
t1 = 2 h
d1 = ?
___
v1 = d1/t1
d1 = v1 * t1
Car B:
v2 = ?
t2 = 1.5 h
d2 = ?
___
v2 = d2/t2
d2 = v2 * t2
<span>Two cars traveled equal distances:
d1 = d2
</span>v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
<span>Car B traveled 15 mph faster than Car A:
v2 = v1 + 15
</span>v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
v2 = v1 + 15
________
v1 * 2 = (v1 + 15) * 1.5
2v1 = 1.5v1 + 22.5
2v1 - 1.5v1 = 22.5
0.5v1 = 22.5
v1 = 22.5/0.5
v1 = 45 mph
v2 = v1 + 15
v2 = 45 + 15
v2 = 60 mph
