Question #1
Which law explains the recoil of a gun when a bullet is fired?
A. Newton's second law
B. Newton's third law
C. Newton's first law
D. Law of conservation of energy

Correct Answer: Option B


Explanation:
Recoil is due to action-reaction pair: gun exerts forward force on bullet, bullet exerts backward force on gun. Newton's third law states for every action there is equal and opposite reaction. Conservation of momentum also explains recoil, but the immediate law is third law. Gun recoil velocity is calculated using conservation of momentum derived from third law.
