Answer:

Explanation:

We know that the pressure can be calculated in the following way:

p = d·g·h

with d being the density of the water, g the gravitational acceleration and h the depth.

Also d of the water = 1000 kg/m^3 circa and g = 9.8 m/s^2 circa

117,500 Pa = 1000kg/m³ · 9.8m/s² · h

Therefore h = 11,9 m

When a cannon is fired, how does the size of the force of the cannon on the cannonball compared with the force of the cannonball
kati45 [8]
The force applied to the cannonball and cannon is equal. The explosion inside the cannon will generate a pressure which will turn into a force on both cannonball and cannon. The cannon being heavier and fixed to the ground will move a bit, but the cannonball will be thrown away, fired.

Answer:

V_{ft}= 317 cm/s

ΔK = 2.45 J

Explanation:

a) Using the law of the conservation of the linear momentum:

P_i = P_f

Where:

P_i=M_cV_{ic} + M_tV_{it}

P_f = M_cV_{fc} + M_tV_{ft}

Now:

M_cV_{ic} + M_tV_{it} = M_cV_{fc} + M_tV_{ft}

Where M_c is the mass of the car, V_{ic} is the initial velocity of the car, M_t is the mass of train, V_{fc} is the final velocity of the car and V_{ft} is the final velocity of the train.

Replacing data:

(1.1 kg)(4.95 m/s) + (3.55 kg)(2.2 m/s) = (1.1 kg)(1.8 m/s) + (3.55 kg)V_{ft}

Solving for V_{ft}:

V_{ft}= 3.17 m/s

Changed to cm/s, we get:

V_{ft}= 3.17*100 = 317 cm/s

b) The kinetic energy K is calculated as:

K = \frac{1}{2}MV^2

where M is the mass and V is the velocity.

So, the initial K is:

K_i = \frac{1}{2}M_cV_{ic}^2+\frac{1}{2}M_tV_{it}^2

K_i = \frac{1}{2}(1.1)(4.95)^2+\frac{1}{2}(3.55)(2.2)^2

K_i = 22.06 J

And the final K is:

K_f = \frac{1}{2}M_cV_{fc}^2+\frac{1}{2}M_tV_{ft}^2

K_f = \frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.8)^2+\frac{1}{2}(3.55)(3.17)^2

K_f = \frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.8)^2+\frac{1}{2}(3.55)(3.17)^2

K_f = 19.61 J

Finally, the change in the total kinetic energy is:

ΔK = Kf - Ki = 22.06 - 19.61 = 2.45 J
