प्रश्न
Why does a gunman get a jerk on firing a bullet ?
उत्तर
When a bullet is fired from a gun, the force pushing the bullet forward is equal to the force pushing the gun backward. However, because of the high mass of the gun, it moves only a little distance backward and gives a backward jerk or kick to the shoulder of the gunman.
