Question:
To a close approximation the pressure behind a rifle bullet varies inversely with the position x of the bullet along the barrel. Thus, the acceleration of the bullet may be written a=k/x where k is a constant. If the bullet starts from rest at x=7.5 mm and if the muzzle velocity of the bullet is 600 m/s at the end of the 750mm barrel, compute the acceleration of the bullet as it passes the midpoint of the barrel at x = 375 mm.
