![]() ![]() The leg is braced against the ground so that force can be applied to push the cart forward.įor a recoilless situation, imagine now that there are 2 carts. Assume that a person is pushing a heavy cart (the projectile). However, for a recoiless gun, the force of propelling the projectile forward is counteracted by the high velocity gas from the propellant released from the rear of the gun. Therefore, the gun (and the ground) must absorb this reaction. Newton's third law states that the actions of two bodies upon each other are always equal and directly opposite i.e., reaction is always equal and opposite to action. When firing a weapon (example, a gun) the recoil is force in the ooposite direction of the projectile movement. I think i seen this gun at the movie 'Black Hawk Down'
