we shoot a pumpkin horizontally from a cannon at a height of 412 ft with a velocity of 50 m/s South. whats the potential energy of the pumpkin the instant it emerges from the pumpkin cannon?
Let 'm' be the mass of the pumpkin.
Then, potential energy of pumpkin just outside canon,
PE = mgh = m * 9.81 * (412 * 0.3048) = [1231.9 * m] J

a cannon with velocity 300 m/s at angel 45,whats the range and height?
A cannon fires a ball horizontally with a velocity of 240 m/s. If the cannon is in a 44 meter tall tower and the ground below is flat, then (a) How long does the ball take to hit the ground after being fired? (b) At what horizontal distance from the cannon does the ball hit the ground? and (c) What are the horizontal and vertical components of the ball's velocity just before it hits the ground?
A cannon shoots a cannonball from the ground level (ignore the height of the cannon) towards a cliff of height h = 170 m. The cannonball is launched with an initial velocity of 110 m/s at an angle of 64° above the horizontal. Neglect air resistance. Assume the cannonball hits the cliff as it descends (on its way down) exactly at the edge, as shown. a. Determine the maximum height above the ground reached by the cannonball.b. What speed will the...
A cannon fires a round horizontally from the top of a 500 m high mountain with a velocity of 350 m/s. a. How long (time) does it take the round to hit the ground. b. How far (distance) from the base of the mountain will it land?
A cannon ball is fired horizontally with an initial velocity of 50 m/s. If it takes 5 seconds for the ball to fall to the ground, how large of a horizontal distance did it travel?
Consider a cannon on top of a cliff of height h = 60 m located at x = 0. It shoots a cannonball of mass m = 4 kg horizontally with an initial speed of v0 = 90 m/s. Ignore air resistance. (a.) Immediately after the cannonball leaves the cannon what are the x and y components of it's velocity? (b.) right after the cannonball leaves the cannon, what are the x and y components of it's acceleration? (c.) How...
A cannonball is fired horizontally from the top of a cit. The cannon is at height = 600 m above ground level and the ball is fired with initial horizontal speed to. Assume acceleration due to gravity to be 9 9.80 m/s - Part A . What is the position of the Assume that the cannon is fired at time t = 0 and that the cannonball hits the ground at time cannonball the time 27 Answer numerically in units...
a cannon ball was fired from a cannon on level ground. an observer in a balloon observed the top of the ball’s flight. as the ball barely misses the observer, he measures a speed of 111 m/s and a height of 75.2 m. how far (horizontally) from the balloon does the ball land? from where was it fired? at what angle was the cannon fired?
A projectile is fired from a cannon with an initial velocity of 100 ft/s at a 30o angle above the horizon. Ignoring air resistance, determine the approximate distance that the projectile hits the ground (in feet) from the cannon based upon flat terrain.
A cannon-ball is fired horizontally with a speed vo = 60.0 m/s above the edge of a cliff at point O a height h = 200 m directly above point B on the valley floor. Calculate the following: a. (4) The time t it takes the cannon ball to hit the valley floor at point C. b. (4) The horizontal range R . c. (6) The x- and y-components x v and y v , respectively, of the cannonball velocity...
