A 906 kg cannon fires a 101 kg cannonball at 35 m/s. What is the magnitude of the recoil velocity (in m/s) of the cannon? Assume that friction between the cannon and ground is negligible and the cannon is fired horizontally.

A cannonball is fired with an initial velocity of 100 m/s at an angle of 35 degrees above the positive x-axis. The target is the enemy King's tower.   The cannon is positioned 300 m from the base of the King's tower, on a flat, horizontal field. The cannonball takes 3.66 s to strike the tower after it is fired. 1. At what height on the tower does the cannonball strike? 2. What is the approximate magnitude of the cannonball's velocity...

A 8.00 ? 107 kg battleship originally at rest fires a 1000 kg artillery shell horizontally with a velocity of +675 m/s. (a) If the shell is fired straight aft, there will be negligible friction opposing the ships recoil velocity. Calculate its recoil velocity.   m/s (b) Calculate the increase in internal kinetic energy (that is, for the ship and the shell). This is less than the energy released by the gun powder -- significant heat is generated. J

(Figure 1) A cannonball is fired horizontally from the top of a cliff. The cannon is at height H = 80.0m above ground level, and the ball is fired with initial horizontal speed v0. Assume acceleration due to gravity to be g = 9.80m/s2 . Part A Assume that the cannon is fired at time t=0 and that the cannonball hits the ground at time tg. What is the y position of the cannonball at the time tg/2? Answer numerically...

A cannonball, weighing 19.1 kg, is shot from a cannon sitting on a ledge a height of 2.50 m above sea-level toward a castle. It is shot with a velocity of 42.0 m/s at an angle of 55.0° above the horizontal. The cannonball impacts on the castle wall 5.70 s later. (a) At what height, in feet, does the cannonball hit the castle wall? (b) What is the cannonball’s impact velocity (magnitude and direction) just before hitting the cliff? (c)...
