Why does a person while firing a bullet holds the gun tightly to his shoulder? SHORT ANSWER ​

Physics
2 answers:
Amanda [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

They hold it tightly to their shoulder because the gun recoils and jumps back so by holding it to their shoulder it allows them to stablize the gun so that when it jumps in stead of the gun kicking back and flying the gun jumps and hit the shoulder.

Answer:helps to absorb most of the force produced by the recoil allowing the the shooter to steady his shoot and remain standing

Hope it helps

Physics in motion Unit 6A The nature of waves
Daniel [21]

#1

length of one complete wave shape is known as wavelength

#2

Frequency is defined as number of oscillations per second or number of waves passing through a point in one second.

#3

One Time period is the time to cover one complete wavelength distance by the wave

#4

relation between time period and frequency is given as

f = \frac{1}{T}

#5

Time period of simple pendulum is given as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}

so it depends on length of pendulum and acceleration due to gravity

#6

amplitude of the wave is the height above the axis to which particle can attain its maximum position or its maximum height on y axis is amplitude

Mickey, a daredevil mouse of mass m , m, is attempting to become the world's first "mouse cannonball." He is loaded into a sprin
Sati [7]

Answer:

  h = v₀² / 2g ,      h = k/4g     x²

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the law of conservation of energy at two points, the lowest, before the shot and the highest point that the mouse reaches

Starting point. Lower compressed spring

              Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final point. Highest on the path

             Em_{f} = U = mg h

             

As or no friction the energy is conserved  

              Em₀ =  Em_{f}

              ½ m v₀²² = m g h

             h = v₀² / 2g

We can also use as initial energy the energy stored in the spring that will later be transferred to the mouse

                  ½ k x² = 2 g h

                  h = k/4g     x²

A 23 cm tall object is placed in front of a concave mirror with a radius of 37 cm. The distance of the object to the mirror is 8
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

18.5 cm

Explanation:

From;

1/u + 1/v = 1/f

Where;

u= object distance = 86cm

image height = 23 cm

Radius of curvature = 37 cm

The radius of curvature (r) is the radius of the sphere of which the mirror forms a part.

Focal length (f) = radius of curvature (r)/2 = 37cm/2 = 18.5 cm

Therefore, the focal length of the mirror is 18.5 cm
