This is Newton’s third law
I shared it with the same title the OG creator had for it, I try to do that whenever possible unless the author didn’t have a title then I’ll make one that makes sense.
…isn’t Newton’s first law about inertia?
Second one is about momentum, and third one is about the action-reaction.
- ∆v = 0 if a = 0
- F = ma
- Fa->b = -Fb->a
~oh neat, subscript finally works. they fixed the bug!~
edit: dang it :(
Not sure if it’s a mistake by the comic artist, or a mistake by the instructor from the comic, but the shooter was destined for failure.
The butt should be pressing into the shooter’s shoulder, such that their body absorbs recoil. In this picture, they have it squashed beneath their armpit where recoil could flip the gun out of their hands and maybe smack their face.
I remember when I was a child, around seven my father had a ten gauge shotgun. I was curious having grew up with firearms so I was happy when he said he’d let me shoot it. He helped me aim since it was heavy and then stepped back and when I shot next thing I remember I was on my ass haha.
Terrified me as a kid, wouldn’t even touch that thing until I was an adult. My dad on the other hand still brings it up as one of his favorite stories.
moral of the story,? Don’t put big boy guns in little hands. I guess.
Good way to scare some respect into the child early on as well. Assuming he had full control of what would happen.
It was a single shot break action, so after shooting the weapon was out of ammo. My dad would never have let me do anything too dangerous.
And I for sure knew that guns were dangerous after that. It was an important lesson for me, a good laugh for him haha.
