The most massive cannon ever built was made in Russia in 1868. This cannon had a mass in excess of 1.40 × 105 kg and could fire cannonballs with masses up to 4.80 × 102 kg. If the gunpowder in the cannon burned very quickly (adiabatically), forming compressed gas in the barrel, then the gas would expand and perform work on the cannonball. Suppose the initial speed of one of these cannonballs is 2.00 × 102 m/s.
a. How much work is done by the expanding gas?
b. If the internal energy of the gas is 12.0 MJ when the cannonball leaves the barrel, what is the initial internal energy of the gas immediately after all of the powder burns?

The membrane surrounding a living cell consists of an inner and an outer wall that are separated by a small space. assume that the membrane acts like a parallel plate capacitor in which the effective charge density on the inner and outer walls has a magnitude of 7.0 × 10-6 c/m2. (a) what is the magnitude of the electric field within the cell membrane? (b) find the magnitude of the electric force that would be exerted on a potassium ion (k+; charge = +e) placed inside the membrane.

In a game of pool, ball a is moving with a velocity v0 of magnitude v0 = 15 ft/s when it strikes balls b and c, which are at rest and aligned as shown. knowing that after the collision the three balls move in the directions indicated and assuming frictionless surfaces and perfectly elastic impact (that is, conservation of energy), determine the magnitudes of the velocities va, vb, and vc.
