    A bullet of mass 50 gram is fired from a 5 kg gun with a velocity of 1km/s. the speed of recoil of the gun is        [JIPMER 1999]

    A)          \[5\,m/s\]                       

    B)          \[1\,m/s\]

    C)          \[0.5\,m/s\]

    D)                       \[10\,m/s\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

             According to conservation of momentum               \[{{m}_{B}}{{v}_{B}}+{{m}_{G}}{{v}_{G}}=0\] Þ \[{{v}_{G}}=-\frac{{{m}_{B}}{{v}_{B}}}{{{m}_{G}}}\]          \[{{v}_{G}}=\frac{-50\times {{10}^{-3}}\times {{10}^{3}}}{5}=-10\,m/s\]
