Chapter 10.5, Problem 10.5CE
What is the purpose of the ropes attached to the cannon in Figure 10.10?
NEWTON’S SECOND LAW APPLIED TO A SYSTEM OF PARTICLES
Underlying Principle
FIGURE 10.10
When a cannonball is fired, all the cannon must move backward for the momentum of the ball–cannon system to be conserved. The backward motion of the cannon is called recoil. The ropes are used to restrain recoil and therefore prevent damage to the ship or crew.
