The cannon fires a 10-lb cannonball with an absolute velocity of 800 ft/sec at 20° to the horizontal. The combined weight of the cannon and its cart is 1610 lb. If the recoil mechanism consists of the spring of constant k=150 lb/in. and the damper with viscous coefficient c=600 lb-sec/ft, determine the maximum recoil deflection xmax of the cannon unit.
