If the force that propels the cannonball forward is 500N how much force will move the cannon backward?

According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Therefore, the force that will move the cannon backward will also be 500N.


If the force that propels a cannonball forwad is 500N how much force will move the cannon backward?

The forces are equal in both directions. The momentum of the shot is also equal to the momentum of the cannon in the other direction. The backward velocity of the cannon is: (forward velocity of the shot) times (mass of the shot) divided by (mass of the cannon).


Why does a cannon recoil when fired?

"For every action, there is an equal and oposite reaction." The cannonball is pushed out of the barrel at high speed. This pushes the cannon in the opposite direction. That is recoil. The heavier the cannonball, and the faster it is pushed, the more the cannon recoils.


When a connon is fired how does the size of the foce of the cannon on the cannonballcompare with he force?

Both objects are acted on by the force of the expanding gases in the bore. The forces forward and backward have to be equal. The motion they produce ... the forward motion of the shot and the rearward motion of the cannon ... are in inverse proportion to their masses, so that the linear momentum after the shot is the same as the linear momentum before the shot, namely zero.


Are the forces balanced or unbalanced when a cannonball is fired parallel to the ground?

Yes, the forces are balanced if the explosives in the cannon, the cannon and the cannon ball are all included in the system. The Echem is transferred to Eint in the form of heat from friction as the cannonball rubs the inside of the cannon barrel, and Ev in the form of vector motion of both the cannonball moving forward and the cannon kicking backwards. Therefor, no energy enters or leaves the system


How does a cannonball work?

A cannonball is fired by a cannon due to the buildup of pressure behind it when ignited. The explosion of gunpowder causes the cannonball to be propelled out of the cannon at high speed. The trajectory and distance the cannonball travels is influenced by factors such as the angle of the cannon and the amount of gunpowder used.


When a cannonball is fired is momentum conserved for the cannon cannonball system?

Yes, momentum is conserved in the cannon-cannonball system. When the cannon fires the cannonball, the cannon moves in the opposite direction to conserve momentum. This is based on the principle of conservation of momentum in a closed system.

What is an initial speed of a cannonball?

Depends on the cannon and the charge.

Will cannonball travel farther if shot from a longer cannon. why?

Yes, a cannonball will generally travel farther if shot from a longer cannon. A longer cannon gives the cannonball more time to accelerate and build momentum before exiting the barrel, resulting in a higher initial velocity and longer travel distance.


Why was Ledell Cannonball Titcomb nicknamed Cannonball?
