A cannon is rigidly attached to a carriage,which can move along horizontal rails but is connected to a post by a large spring, initially unstretched and with force constant
k=2.00×104N/m, as shown in Figure
P9.70. The cannon fires a
200−kg projectile at a velocity
of 125 m/s directed 45.0o above the horizontal.
Assuming that the mass of the cannon and its carriage is 5 000 kg. find the recoil speed of the cannon.![1865267_262330838e2d4d199aeb2b645d74f487.png](https://search-static.byjusweb.com/question-images/toppr_ext/questions/1865267_262330838e2d4d199aeb2b645d74f487.png)
