Question: A special type of cannon that fires
humans out of it, has a mass of 500 kg cannon and is at rest
on a horizontal, frictionless surface on a clear and sunny day.
When a crazy cool 100 kg clown decided to show how the cannon
works they decided to get fired horizontally from the
barrel of the cannon and the cannon recoils with a speed of 5
m/s. A very inquisitive Physics student figured out how
fast the clown was traveling when leaving the cannon. What value
did they come up with?
