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.

     Let us consider the gun with the index 1 and bullet with the index 2. Using the Momentum consevation Equation, we have:

\Delta Q= 0 \\ m_{1}*v_{1}-m_{2}*v_{2}=0 \\ m_{1}*v_{1}=m_{2}*v_{2}
 
     Entering the unknown, comes:

m_{1}*v_{1}=m_{2}*v_{2} \\ 3.1*v_{1}=0.015*500 \\ v_{1}= \frac{7.5}{3.1} \\ \boxed {v_{1}=2.4m/s}

Number 2

Obs: approximate results.

If you notice any mistake in my english, please let me know, because i am not native.

Alternative sources of energy include : geothermal
baherus [9]

Answer:

All of the above

Explanation:

The correct answer is option E (All of the above)

All the options are alternative source of energy.

The option given are not the traditional way (energy production from coal) of extracting energy as the loss of natural resources does not take place in these source of energy.

energy extracted from wind,  solar light , hydrogen ,etc are the source of energy  the alternative source of production of energy because do not exploit the natural resources, reduce the carbon emission and energy produced by them is clean energy.
