A 500 kg cannon fires a 2.5 kg projectile with a velocity of 400 m/s parallel to the ground. The projectile hits a target which is 120 m away from the cannon. What is the recoil speed of the cannon?

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 fires a cannonball with muzzle velocity vo (muzzle velocity is the velocity at which the projectile leaves the cannon). The maximum range of the cannon is 17.6 km (a) What is the muzzle velocity v? (b) A target is a horizontal distance of 5.50 km away fronm the cannon-The cannon can hit this target by firing at two different angles, a low angle 6, and a high angle 0. Calculate these two angles. (c) Find the times, t...

A cannon fires a projectile with an initial velocity of 300 m/s at 61.0° above the horizontal. The projectile impacts a hillside 40.0 s after firing. Let the +x-direction be directly ahead of the cannon and the +y-direction be upward. Find the x- and y-coordinates of the projectile's impact point, relative to its firing point (in m). x= m y= m
The cannon you are testing weighs 260 kg and shoots a 15 kg projectile. During the lab tests the cannon is held horizontal in a rigid support so that it cannot move. Under those conditions, you use video analysis of the projectile to determine that the muzzle speed is 300 m/s. When fired in the field, the cannon is not rigidly attached to the ground, but it is free to move (recoil) when it is fired. There are ropes attached...
Question 20 Not yet answered Points out of 8.00 Flag question A cannon of mass M=122 kg rests on a horizontal frictionless surface. It fires a projectile of mass m=1.5 kg with velocity u=237 m/s relative to the ground. What is the recoil velocity of the cannon? M u
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 gun with inertia 5.5 kg fires a 13-g bullet at a stationary target located 1.0 km away. After the bullet leaves the gun, its speed decreases (constant x component of acceleration a = -1.0 m/s2 ) so that the bullet hits the target at 299 m/s. If the direction in which the bullet moves is along a positive x coordinate axis, what is the recoil velocity of the gun?
A cannon tilted upward at θ = 30 ∘ fires a cannonball with a speed of 95 m/s . At that instant, what is the component of the cannonball’s velocity parallel to the ground?
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?
