Answer:

option D  

Explanation:

given,

mass of the rifle,M = 2 Kg

mass of the bullet , m = 0.01 Kg

speed of the bullet, v = 200 m/s

recoil velocity ,v'= ?

initial velocity of bullet and rifle is zero.

using conservation of energy

Mu + m u' = M v'+ m v

0 + 0  = 2 x v' + 0.01 x 200

2 v' = -2

   v' = -1 m/s

negative sign represent the velocity of rifle is in opposite direction of bullet.

hence, the correct answer is option D

If i punch my self and it will hurt am i weak or strong
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

You're strong.

Explanation:

I've been thinking of this for quite a while, and I realized that your body has a certain limit to how much pain it can take. So, punching yourself extremely hard will cause pain, because that's your body's reaction to immense pressure being put on it. But, the fact that you punched yourself so hard that it hurts, shows that you are capable of applying so much pressure; therefore, you are strong.

Thermodynamics
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

A heat engine is a device that converts internal energy into work. Internal energy is increased by the addition of heat. The efficiency of a heat engine is a measurement of how efficiently it works. Efficiency compares the amount of useful energy extracted from a process to the total energy input. The heat engine will be more efficient if the percentage is higher.
