A 100 kg cannon at rest is loaded with a 10 kg cannonball. When fired horizontally, the cannon ball leaves the cannon with a spe

ed of 90 m/s. What is the recoil speed of the cannon

Answer:

recoil speed is 9 m/s

Explanation:

given data

cannon mass = 100 kg

cannonball = 10 kg

speed = 90 m/s

solution

we use here the law of conservation of momentum

as total momentum of the cannon and cannonball both before and after the shot will be conserve

and before shot

total momentum p = 0   ..............1

and

After the shot

the total momentum p = mv + MV     .............2

and

momentum is conserved so we can say from both equation

0 = mv + MV

put here value and we get

V = -\frac{mv}{M}

V = -\frac{(10)(90)}{100}

V = -9 m/s

here V = -9 m/s negative sign show that cannon will move in the opposite direction to the cannonball

so that recoil speed is 9 m/s

In what way are gravitational and electrical forces similar?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact  or not.

Explanation:

- The gravitational force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having mass. This force is always attractive and its magnitude is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the two masses, and r is the distance between the two masses.

- The electrical force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having electrical charge. It can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the sign of the two charges, and its magnitude is given by

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges, and r the distance between the two charges.

Looking at both formulas, we see that the two forces are present even when the two objects are not in contact with each other (in fact, r can assume any value in the formula). They are said to be non-contact forces. Therefore, the correct option is

D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact  or not.
