A historian claims that a cannonball fired at a castle wall would melt on impact with the wall. Let's examine this claim. Assume that the kinetic energy of the cannonball is completely transformed into the internal energy of the cannonball on impact with no energy transferred to the wall. The cannonball is made of iron, which has a specific heat capacity of 450 J/kg-K and a melting point of 1811 K.
If the cannonball has an initial temperature of 298 K, how fast would the cannonball need to travel in order to reach its melting point on impact? If the latent heat of fusion of iron is 2.72

Mass (kg) force (n) 5 25 10 50 15 75 20 100 a student was trying to find the relationship between mass and force. he placed four different masses on a table and pulled them using a spring scale. the table shows the different masses used in the experiment and the force required to pull each mass. the student concluded that more force was required to pull heavier objects. what comment would you make regarding his conclusion? a) no clear relation can be observed between mass and force from the data. b) there is a direct proportion between the mass and force listed in the table. c) gravity should have been taken into account while performing the experiment. d) there is an inverse proportion between the mass and force listed in the table.
