Answer:

a )  4.5 N.s

b) V =5 m/s    

Explanation:

given,

mass of rifle(M)  = 0.9 kg

mass of bullet(m)  = 6 g = 0.006 kg

velocity of the bullet(v)  = 750 m/s

a) momentum of bullet = m × v

                                  = 750 × 0.006

                                  = 4.5 N.s

b) recoil velocity                                                      

m × u + M × U = m × v + M × V

0  + 0  = 0.006 × 750 -  0.9 × V

V = \dfrac{4.5}{0.9}

V =5 m/s

In three sentences, please describe SIMPLE HARMONIC motion, and give two examples. Thank you! :-)

A system that repeats to and from its mean or rest point. that executes harmonic motion. a few examples I've heard of are since the springtime a mass-spring system,a swing, simple pendulum, one more example is a steel ball rolling in a curved is this what you need or do you need three more sentences dish. to get S.H.M a body just displaced away from the resting position and of course then is released. the human body oscillates due to the reinforce that pulls it back do you need anything else answered on this and I'll answer it

Soloha48 [4]
<span>The weightlifter does no work. Although he has exerted force, work is the product of force over distance. Since he has not moved the wall he has done no work.</span>
