Summary

A comparison of the recoil impulse from a powder gun (green), electromagnetic gun (red), and a powder gun with a muzzle brake (blue) for a constant-energy launch (varying the mass of the projectile with speed to keep the total kinetic energy constant). Data from Edward M. Schmidt, "Comparison of the recoil of conventional and electromagnetic cannon", Shock and Vibration 8 (2001) 141–145 https://doi.org/10.1155/2001/590948
