What is the final speed if the displacement is increased by a factor of 4?

Physics

From the laws of motions:
x = 0.5 at^2 where
x is the displacement
a is the force of gravity (constant = 9.8 m/sec^2)
t is the time taken

Since "a" is constant, therefore:
the displacement is directly proportional to the square of the time.
This means that, increasing the displacement by a factor of 4 would increase the time by a factor of (4)^2 = 16.

slega [8]

Answer:

9 m/s

Explanation:

mass of cannon, M = 100 kg

mass of cannon ball, m = 10 kg

velocity of cannon ball, v = 90 m/s

Let the recoil velocity of cannon is V.

Us ethe conservation of linear momentum, as no external force is acting on the system, so the linear momentum of the system is conserved.

Momentum before the firing = momentum after the firing

M x 0 + m x 0 = M x V + m x v

0 = 100 x V + 10 x 90

V = - 9 m/s

Thus, the recoil velocity of cannon is 9 m/s.
