A 0.0250-kg bullet is accelerated from rest to a speed of 550 m/s in a 3.00-kg rifle.

(a) Calculate the recoil velocity of the rifle if it is held loosely away from the shoulder. (b) How much kinetic energy does the rifle gain? (c) What is the recoil velocity if the rifle is held tightly against the shoulder, making the effective mass 28.0 kg? (d) How much kinetic energy is transferred to the rifle shoulder combination?
