Q. A machine gun fires a bullet of mass $65\, g$ with a velocity of $1300\, m / s$. The man holding it can exert a maximum force of $169\, N$ on the gun. The number of bullets he can fire per second will be

Laws of Motion

Solution:

$n m v=F$
$n$ is number of bullets fired per second
$n\left[\frac{65}{1000} \cdot 1300\right] =169$
$n =2$
