**27. ssm A cannon of mass 5.80 × 10° kg is rigidly bolted to the earth so it can recoil only by a negligible amount. The cannon fires an 85.0-kg shell horizontally with an initial velocity of +551 m/s. Suppose the cannon is then unbolted from the earth, and no external force hinders its recoil. What would be the velocity of an identical shell fired by this loose can- non? (Hint: In both cases assume that the burning gunpowder imparts the same kinetic energy to the system.)

You launch a 20 kg shell at 45 degrees and at a speed of 25 m/sec. 1 second after launching it, it explodes into two fragments. Note that the first fragment of 15 kg has a speed of 30 m/sec horizontally forward immediately after the explosion. What is the speed of the second fragment ?
In a ballistic pendulum experiment, a small marble is fired into a cup attached to the end of a pendulum. If the mass of the marble is 0.0285 kg and the mass of the pendulum is 0.250 kg, how high h will the pendulum swing if the marble has an initial speed of 5.85 m/s? Assume that the mass of the pendulum is concentrated at its end so that linear momentum is conserved during this collision. h = m
A cannon of mass 6.13 x 10³ kg is rigidly bolted to the earth so it can recoil only by a negligible amount. The cannon fires a 74.5-kg shell horizontally with an initial velocity of 590 m/s. Suppose the cannon is then unbolted from the earth, and no external force hinders its recoil. What would be the velocity of a shell fired from this loose cannon?

A person is pushing a 8 kg block along a horiontal surface at a constant speed of 15.4 m/s. The person is applying a force of 8.9 N to the block at an angle of 36.7° above horizontal.

A wood block of mass mw = 200 g is projected from the ground at a speed vo = 35 m/s and at an angle 60 = 50°. When at height h = 24 m the wood block was hit by a bullet of mass mb = 25 g which was moving at vh= 220 m/s and at an angle On = 70°. After the collision, the bullet embedded itself in the block and move together and land at point A on the ground. Then they move on the ground that has coefficient of kinetic friction uk = 0.5 and start to compress a horizontal spring at point B. The distance between point A and B is 18 m and the spring constant k = 3x102 N/m. Right end of the spring is fixed, and all motions are confined in x-y plane. %3D Wood block + Bullet Bullet Wood A B block (a) Was the collision between the wood block and the bullet elastic or inelastic?
