Answer:

According to the Conservation of Momentum,

Momentum of the gun = momentum of the bullet

M(gun)×V(gun)=m(bullet)×v(bullet)

4kg × V = 0.3kg × 600m/s²

V = (0.3 × 600)/4 = 45 m/s

The recoil velocity on the gun is 45 m/s

<h3>45 m/s is the right answer.</h3>

The given data is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car's skid mark to be 84 m long. It was a rainy day and the coefficient of friction was estimated to be 0.36. Use these data to determine the speed of the car when the driver slammed on (and locked) the brakes. (why does the car's mass not matter?)

Explanation:

Let us assume that v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity of the car. Let s be the skid marks and $\mu$ be the friction coefficient and m be the mass of car.
