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: 247.67 V
Explanation:
Given
Potential At A 
Potential at 
when particle starts from A it reaches with velocity
at Point while when it starts from C it reaches at point B with velocity 
Suppose m is the mass of Particle
Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From A to B

Change in Kinetic Energy of particle moving under the Potential From C to B

Divide 1 and 2 we get

on solving we get


A camera flash or lighting bolt because stored separated positive and negative charges --> caused them to do work by briefly lighting a bulb as the separated charges moved back together
