A bullet is accelerated down the barrel of a gun by hot gases produced in the combustion of gun powder. What is the average force (in N) exerted on a 0.0200 kg bullet to accelerate it to a speed of 700 m/s in a time of 1.50 ms (milliseconds)

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass of bullet= 0.02kg

speed v=700m/s

time taken =1.5ms= 0.0015 seconds

Step two:

we know that from the first law

F=ma1  first law of motion

also, we know that

a=v/t2

put a=v/t in equation 1 we have

F=mv/t

Step three:

substitute our given data to find force

F=0.02*700/0.0015

F=14/0.0015

F=9333.33N

F=9.3kN

The average force exerted is 9.3kN

the ima (higher than 1m) will be greater than the ima with the height of 1m.
