A person holds a rifle horizontally and fires at a target. The
bullet has a muzzle speed of 155 m/s, and the person hears the
bullet strike the target 0.70 s after firing it. The air
temperature is 77°F. What is the distance to the target

A 5.34g bullet leaves the muzzle of a rifle with a speed of 348
m/s. What force (assumed constant) is exerted on the bullet while
it is traveling down the 0.812 m long barrel of the rifle?

A skeet shooter aims at a clay pigeon. The muzzle velocity of
the rifle is 700 mph and the man holds the rifle such that the end
of the gun is 6 ft off the ground. Assuming that the speed of the
skeet is insignificant relative to the speed of the bullet,
determine the angle at which the man needs to hold the rifle in
order to hit a clay pigeon that is 50 yards away and at an altitude...

A rifle of mass M is initially at rest. A bullet of mass m is
fired from the rifle with a velocity v relative to the ground.
Which one of the following expressions gives the velocity of the
rifle relative to the ground after the bullet is fired?
A) −mv
B) mv
C) Mv/m
D) mv/M

Agent Arlene devised the following method of measuring the
muzzle velocity of a rifle (the figure below). She fires a bullet
into a 4.114-kg wooden block resting on a smooth surface, and
attached to a spring of spring constant k = 164.2 N/m . The bullet,
whose mass is 7.870 g, remains embedded in the wooden block. She
measures the maximum distance that the block compresses the spring
to be 9.460 cm .
What is the speed v of the...

A bullet weighing 0.1 lb is fired vertically downward from a
stationary helicopter with a muzzle velocity of 1200 ft/sec. The
air resistance (in lbs) is numerically equal to
16-5v2, where v is the velocity of the bullet
in ft/sec.
a)If the helicopter is 3,000 ft high, how long does it take for
the bullet to hit the ground?

A bullet of mass 6.45 g is fired from a 66.0 cm-long rifle
barrel at 237 m/s. The mass of the rifle is 4.50 kg. Determine the
acceleration of the bullet as well as the recoil acceleration of
the rifle.

Assume that the bullet is fired due East at a latitude
of 40° N, velocity is 30 m/s, and distance from target is 10m. Find
the amount by which it misses hitting the center on the target due
to the Coriolis force, vertical and horizontal.

The following data represent the muzzle velocity (in feet per
second) of rounds fired from a 155-mm gun. For each round, two
measurements of the velocity were recorded using two different
measuring devices, resulting in the following data. Complete parts
(a) through (d) below.
