Question

A machine gun fires a steady stream of bullets at the rate of n per minute into a stationary target in which the bullets get embedded. If each bullet has a mass m and arrives at the target with a velocity v, the average force on the target is :

Easy
Solution

change in momentum for each bullet is mv  total change in momentum  nmv

force = rate of change of momentum= mnv60
