A person with machine gun can fire 50 ~g bullets with a velocity of 240 ~m / s . A 60 ~kg tiger moves towards him with a velocity of 12 ~m / s . In order to stop the tiger in track, the number of bullets the person fires towards the tiger is
Options
- A50
- B60
- C70
- D80
Correct answer
B. 60
Step-by-step solution
In order to stop the tiger, the momentum of the bullets fired must be equal to the momentum of the tiger. array ll & MV = nmv & n = MV mV = 60 12 50 10⁻³ 240 & n =60 array
