When a rifle is fired how does the size of the force of the rifle on the bullet compare with the force of the bullet on the rifle how does the acceleration of the rifle compare with that of the bullet?
The force of the rifle on the bullet and the force of the bullet on the rifle are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, according to Newton's third law of motion. However, the mass of the rifle is much larger than the mass of the bullet, so the acceleration of the rifle is much smaller compared to the acceleration of the bullet.
When a rifle is fired it recoils as the bullet is set in motion the bullet is ideally acquire equal?
When a rifle is fired, the bullet creates a forward force on the projectile, and the rifle experiences an equal but opposite force in the backward direction, known as recoil. This is explained by Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
What kind of force is the backward kick of a rifle after its been shot?
This will vary depending on the cartridge fired, and the weight of the rifle. With a heavy target rifle in caliber 22 LR, it will be barely noticeable. With a light hunting rifle in 30-06 caliber, it can be enough force to be painful. With VERY powerful cartridges, such as the .577 T-Rex, recoil may be enough to knock you down. Recoil is the REACTION to the ACTION of accelerating a bullet down the barrel. The weight and speed of the bullet generate the recoil (heavier, faster bullets = more recoil) , modified by the weight of the rifle- heavier= less recoil.
Can 22 shorts be fired in rifle cambered for 22 long rifle?
22 shorts can be fired in a pump or bolt action rifle chambered for long rifle cartridges but not in most automatics.
Could a bullet be fired from one rifle down the barrle of another?
It has happened. During the American Civil War, a Union rifleman fired his rifle, and the projectile collided with the projectile fired by a Confederate rifleman - in the barrel of the Confederate's rifle. IIRC, that rifle was displayed in the Museum of American History.
Make a sentence with the word rifle?
My father gave me a rifle for Christmas. I fired my rifle for the first time. My rifle misfired.
Can a rifle be fired in the vacuum of space?
Yes
When a rifle fires it accelerates a bullet along the barrel Explain why the rifle must recoil?
When the rifle fires, it propels the bullet forward with force based on Newton's Third Law of Motion: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The force pushing the bullet forward causes an equal force in the opposite direction, which results in the rifle recoiling backward.
What type of bullets were fired by the springfield rifle?

Does a rifle explode?
Normally, no- but if fired with a plugged barrel, they can.
What is the velocity of 303 rifle bullet?
2441 feet per second when fired from the British SMLE rifle. Velocity will vary when fired from rifles with a longer or shorter barrel.
