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.

A wave has a wavelength of 4.9 m and a velocity of 9.8 m/s. The medium through which this wave is traveling is then heated so th
garri49 [273]

Answer:

the wavelength is 9.8 meters

Explanation:

We can use the relationship:

Velocity = wavelenght*frequency.

Initially we have:

wavelenght = 4.9m

velocity = 9.8m/s

then:

9.8m/s =  4.9m*f

f = 9.8m/s/4.9m =  2*1/s

now, if the velocity is doubled and the frequency remains the same, we have:

2*9.8m/s = wavelenght*2*1/s

wavelenght = (2*9.8m/s)*(1/2)s = 9.8 m
