A 1450 kg cannon, which fires a 80 kg shell with a speed of 526 m/s relative to the muzzle, is set at an elevation angle of 39° above the horizontal. The cannon is mounted on frictionless rails, so that it recoils freely. What is the speed of the shell with respect to the Earth? At what angle with the ground is the shell projected?

A 19.0-kg cannonball is fired from a cannon with muzzle speed of 1 150 m/s at an angle of 35.0° with the horizontal. A second ball is fired with the same initial speed at an angle of 90.0°. Let y = 0 at the cannon. (a) Use the isolated system model to find the maximum height reached by each ball. hfirst ball = m hsecond ball = m (b) Use the isolated system model to find the total mechanical energy of the...

1. A cannon fires a cannonball from the top of a wall at a speed of 113.26 m/s and an angle of 28.78 degrees from the horizontal. A cannonball that was accidentally dropped from the top of the castle hits the water below in 2.35 s. What is the horizontal distance from the wall where the fired cannonball hits the ground? 2. A car is traveling at 58.21 mph. The driver applies the brakes and the car decelerates at 4.53...

A cannon on a train car fires a projectile to the right with speed v0, relative to the train, from a barrel elevated at angle θ. The cannon fires just as the train, which had been cruising to the right along a level track with speed vtrain, begins to accelerate with acceleration a, which can be either positive (speeding up) or negative (slowing down). Find an expression for the angle at which the projectile should be fired so that it...

The driver of a 1450 kg car, initially traveling at 10.6 m/s, applies the brakes, bringing the car to rest in a distance of 24.0 m. Find the net work done on the car. Find the magnitude and direction of the force that does this work. (Assume this force is constant.) A cyclist coasts up a 10.3° slope, traveling 19.0 m along the road to the top of the hill. If the cyclist's initial speed is 9.90 m/s, what is...

A 1450 kg car begins sliding down a 12.0 ° inclined road with a speed of 34.0 km/h.The engine is turned off, and the only forces acting on the car are a net frictional force from the road and the gravitational force. After the car has traveled 45.0 m along the road, its speed is 50.0 km/h. (a) How much is the mechanical energy of the car reduced because of the net frictional force? (b) What is the magnitude of...

A shell is launched at angle 62° above the horizontal with initial speed 30 m/s. It follows a typical projectile-motion trajectory, but at the top of the trajectory, it explodes into two pieces of equal mass. One fragment has speed 0 m/s immediately after the explosion, and falls to the ground. How far from the launch-point does the other fragment land, assuming level terrain and negligible air resistance?

A 7.1 kg block with a speed of 3.3 m/s collides with a 14.2 kg block that has a speed of 2.2 m/s in the same direction. After the collision, the 14.2 kg block is observed to be traveling in the original direction with a speed of 2.8 m/s. (a) What is the velocity of the 7.1 kg block immediately after the collision? (b) By how much does the total kinetic energy of the system of two blocks change because...
