What is recoil?Group of answer choicesThe linear momentum of a spring coil when the external compressing force is removed.The difference between the final linear momentum and the initial linear momentum of the object.The backward impulse felt by an object while it is exerting a forward impulse on another object.The difference between the total linear momentum of the system after impact and the total linear momentum of the system before impact.

What is the difference between linear momentum and impulse?

What is the importance of chest recoil?Group of answer choicesAllows the chest to return to its normal positionTransports blood and oxygen to the brainAllows for a pause between each compressionAllows the compressions to be at an accurate depthMoves oxygenated blood to the vital organs

True or false? A gun recoils backwards as it fires because as the gun exerts a force on the bullet, the bullet also exerts an equal and opposite force on the gun.

A machine gun fires 60.0 gram bullets at a rate of 6 bullets per second. If the speed of the bullets is 600 m/s, then the magnitude of the average recoil force on the machine gun is

The force applied to change the momentum of an object results in a force equal in , but opposite in direction to the object that is applying the force. This is an application of Newton's law, resulting in conservation of of the system consisting of both objects.
