I need help with my 9th grade physics homework. This question is about for forces.
If the rifle is stopped by the hunter’s shoulder in a distance of 3.16 cm, what is the magnitude of the average force exerted on the shoulder by the rifle?
Answer in units of N.
mass of bullet= 0.0137 kg
velocity of bullet= 546 m/s to the right
mass of rifle= 3.82 kg
recoil speed of the rifle as the bullet leaves the rifle= 1.958167539 m/s
