Momentum and CollisionHard

Question

A cannon of mass 5 m (including a shell of mass m )is at rest on a smooth horizontal ground, fires the shell with its barrel at an angles θ with  the horizontal at a velocity u relative to cannon :

Options

A.
B.
C.
D.

Solution

COLM :
Along horizontal

0 = m(u cos  - v) - 4mv ⇒ v =
∴ velocity of shell along horizontal w.r.t ground
= u cos θ - (u cos θ)
Time flight T =
∴ x = horizontal  displacement
=
