MCQ
A cannon after firing recoils due to
- AConservation of energy
- BBackward thrust of gases produced
- ✓Newton's third law of motion
- DNewton's first law of motion
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Newton's third law of motion
c
(c) When cannon fires the cannon ball, if applies large force on it due to which cannon ball travels large distance. This force is action. At the same time, cannon ball applies same force on cannon due to which cannon recoils. This force is reaction.
(c) When cannon fires the cannon ball, if applies large force on it due to which cannon ball travels large distance. This force is action. At the same time, cannon ball applies same force on cannon due to which cannon recoils. This force is reaction.
As it is action reaction pair, Option $c$ is correct.
