Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 92TE
When a cannon with a long barrel is fired, the force of expanding gases act on the cannonball for a relatively long distance. How does this affect the velocity of the emerging cannonball? (Note that Exercise 76 treats time instead of distance. It is nice to see two ways to view the same physics.)

The bullet has a mass m, a speed v before the collision with the target, and a speed (0.506)v after passing through the target. The collision is inelastic and during the collision, the amount of energy lost is equal to a fraction [(0.443)KEb Bc) of the kinetic energy of the bullet before the collision. Determine the mass Mof the target and the speed Vof the target the instant after the collision in terms of the mass mof the bullet and speed vof the bullet before the collision.
