Okay, well I can write out the impulse relations on the FBD. Since FΔt=mΔv, then F=mΔv/Δt. SO, putting m1Δv1/Δt = m2Δv2/Δt still leaves me with the mass unavailable, they don't cancel out since they're different... How do I solve this without the mass (or time)? I'm just getting into...

Homework Statement A 50.0N bullet leaves a 40.0N gun with a velocity of 200. m/s. What is the recoil velocity of the gun? Homework Equations I tried to figure this out by using anything in relation to FΔt = mΔv but, I'm left with two unsolved variables, Δt and m...
