The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

The question can be solved, using Newton's second law of motion.

Note: Momentum of the cannon = momentum of the cannonball.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • MV = mv................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • M = mass of the cannon
  • m = mass of the cannonball
  • V = velocity of the cannon
  • v = velocity of the cannonball

Make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = MV/m................ Equation 2

From the question,

<h3>Given: </h3>
  • M = 500 kg
  • V = 3 m/s
  • m = 10 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • v = (500×3)/10
  • v = 150 m/s.

 

Hence, The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

We use towels to dry our body after taking a shower,why?<br><br>​
9966 [12]

Answer:

A wet body has a relatively high concentration of water. When this is transferred to a towel, the large surface area of the towel fabric distributes the water molecules over a much greater surface area, so the relative concentration is lower.
