, Problem 23 GO The lead female character in the mo e vie Diamonds Are Forever is standing at the edge of an offshore oil rig. As she fires a gun, she is driven back over the edge and into is 0.035 kg and its velocity is +650 m/s. Her mass (including the gun) is 50 kg. (a) What recoil velocity does she acquire response to a single shot from a stationary position, assuming that no external force keeps her in place? (b) Under the same assumption, what would be her recoll velocity if, instead, she shoots a blank cartridge that ejects a mass of S.0 x 10 kg at a velocity of +65o m/s?
