When a bullet is fired from a gun, what is true about the momentum?
Responses
The bullet and gun have equal momenta in opposite directions, so the system's momentum is conserved.

The gun has more momentum than the bullet, so the momentum is not conserved.
The gun has more momentum than the bullet, so the momentum is not conserved.
