The average distance a Civil War cannonball could travel varied depending on the type of cannon and ammunition used, but it typically ranged from 1,000 to 2,000 yards (about 0.57 to 1.14 miles). Some more powerful cannons could achieve even greater ranges, potentially exceeding 2,500 yards under optimal conditions. Factors such as the angle of elevation, type of powder, and terrain also influenced the distance traveled.
All caravels, from the reign of King Joao II (1481), carried cannon on deck, in place of the previous hand-held, light-caliber artillery. However, there were two, three and four-masted caravels, with a large variation in size, so the the number of cannon, in turn, would vary greatly. It is therefore inpossible to say: "A caravel carried X number of cannon," but it probably varied between two and eight.
The very first weapon fired was a ceremonial cannon from The Citadel. Cadets from the college dragged the cannon out to the waterfront where South Carolina militia were threatening to fire on Fort Sumter. The cadets fired on the fort and the Union forces fired back. The militia joined in and managed to set the fort afire. One Union soldier was killed. The fort surrendered, marking the beginning of the war. The Citadel cadets today remain proud of starting the shooting in the Civil War.
The distance from Rome to Jerusalem is roughly 1426 miles. So that would be an estimate of the distance between the Colosseum and what is thought to be Calvary.The distance from Rome to Jerusalem is roughly 1426 miles.

No. If he had there would have not been a need for the 1964 civil rights act.
The majority of the cannon balls would have been made of cast iron. Some might have been some made with steel. Hollow ones where filled with gunpowder and had a fuze that would make it explode at some point.
That depends on how long the soldier lived for on the battlefield.
Depends on the cannon- the bigger the diameter of the barrel, the more powder it would take. A cannon of the type used as mobile artillery during the American Civil War would use an average of 2-5 lbs of powder per shot, depending on the size, and type of projectile.
Average speed = distance/time
The total distance is 340miles. The journey would take about 6 hours and 2 minutes.
To find the average speed of an object, you would divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken to travel that distance. This will give you the average speed of the object over a specific period.
To calculate the average speed of a bus, you would need to determine the total distance traveled by the bus and the total time it took to cover that distance. Divide the total distance by the total time to get the average speed. This formula is Average Speed = Total Distance / Total Time.
No. The average speed would be the distance traveled divided by the elapsed time.
To calculate average speed, you would need the total time taken to cover the distance. If we have the time taken, we can divide the distance traveled by the time taken to get the average speed. Without the time taken, we cannot calculate the average speed in this case.
The average spped increase
The driving distance between Portland, OR and Cannon Beach, OR is 80 miles. The driving time would be approximately 2 hours if driving non-stop in good conditions. (The driving time does not take into consideration conditions such as weather, road work and rush hour traffic in urban areas.)
The cannon would want to move backwards with the same speed as the ball wants to move forward.
If the distance increases but the time decreases, the average speed of the object would increase. This is because speed is calculated as distance divided by time, so when distance increases and time decreases, the ratio of distance to time increases, resulting in a higher average speed.
