A 500 kg cannon rests on wheels that are free to roll. The cannon fires a 2 kg cannon ball horizontally with an average force of 400 N. What is the acceleration of the cannon ball? What is the recoil acceleration of the cannon

acceleration is a=f/m f=400N m=2 kg a=200 m/s^2 recoil acceleration due to II Newtons law is m1a1=F a1=F/m1 a1=400/200= 2 m/s^2
