Question

A cannonball is shot out of a long cannon and then a short cannon with the same amount of force. The short cannon cannonball has Group of answer choices

more mometum, velocity, and impulse.
more momentum only.
more impulse only.
less mometum.
more velocity only.

Answer 1

The correct answer is less momentum.

Step-by-step explanation:

The momentum of an object is directly linked to the force exerted on that object. In a longer barrel, the shot cannonball will have a greater impulse changing to occur a larger momentum and therefore a higher speed will be applied to the bullet, contrary to what would happen in a shorter barrel.
