A cannon with a short or medium barrel and a steep angle of fire would be effective for lobbing projectiles at a high trajectory, useful for targeting enemies behind cover or fortifications. This design would likely sacrifice horizontal range for the ability to hit targets behind obstacles.

Why does a bullet have less momentum fired from a short barrel vs long barrel?
At the instant the gun fires, the bullet is at rest- speed zero. As the expanding gasses from the burning gunpowder reach the bullet, they begin pushing the bullet up the barrel. It's speed is increasing- and the longer the push, the higher the speed. There IS a point of diminishing returns- where a barrel LONGER than the perfect length begins to slow the bullet- you have used all the expanding gasses, and now friction is slowing the bullet. If you had a barrel 20 ft long, the bullet would not make it all the way up the barrel, it would stop.For barrels on any realistically-usable weapon, a longer barrel will provide more momentum to the bullet than a shorter one. In addition, longer rifled barrels will also impart more spin, which will increase accuracy.
What is medium stature?
Medium stature typically refers to a height that falls within the average range for a population. It is a term used to describe individuals who are not considered tall or short relative to others in their community or society. This can vary across different regions and ethnic groups.
How do you convert short wave to medium wave?
Sound . . .direct the sound into a less-dense medium. Its frequency remains constant butits speed decreases, so its wavelength increases.Light . . .direct the light into a medium with a higher refractive index. Its frequency remainsconstant but its speed decreases, so its wavelength increases.
Which fires the farthest a long or short cannon?
A long cannon fires farther than a short cannon due to the longer barrel allowing for a longer distance through which the projectile can accelerate and gain velocity. This results in a higher muzzle velocity and longer range for the long cannon compared to a short one.
What is medium term plan?
A medium-term plan is a strategic plan that outlines goals and actions to be achieved over a period of typically 2 to 5 years. It serves as a bridge between short-term operational plans and long-term strategic plans for an organization or individual. The medium-term plan helps provide direction and focus on key priorities to drive progress and growth.

The hypotenuse of a 30 60 90 triangle has a length of 17 What is the length of the side opposite the 60 angle?
I know that the side lengths of a 30 60 90 triangle have a relationship. Opposite from the 30 degree angle is the smallest side of the triangle, since a small angle can only hold a small side. Opposite from the 90 degree angle is the longest side since 90 is the largest of the angles. This side is also called the hyponteneuse. Across from the 60 degree angle, the medium-sized angle, is the medium side. The relationship between the sides of this special right triangle is short side = x big side or hypoteneuse = 2x (in other words, twice as long as the short side) medium side = x times the square root of 3 (or about 1.7 times as long as the short side) So if the hypoteneuse is 17 units long, the short side is half as long or 8.5 units. The medium side is 8.5 x sqrt3 or about 14.72 units long.
What is a cannon with short or medium barrels with a low muzzle and steep angle or fire called?
A mortar. Actually, it's a Howitzer. Mortars are not a form of cannon.
