What is the average firing speed of a cannon?

The average firing speed of a cannon can vary depending on the type and size of the cannon. However, on average, a cannon can fire a projectile at speeds ranging from around 300 to 1,500 meters per second.


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.


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.


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).


A 50 kg cannon ball is shot horizontally from a cannon at a speed of 80 ms. At this speed what will its kinetic energy be?

The kinetic energy of the cannon ball can be calculated using the formula KE = 1/2 * m * v^2, where m is the mass of the cannon ball (50 kg) and v is its velocity (80 m/s). Plugging in these values, you would find that the kinetic energy of the cannon ball is 160,000 Joules.
