The following takes place at a colony on the Moon some time in the distant future:

A 40 kg cannon is loaded with a 10 kg cannonball and mounted on a 6 kg platform with wheels very low to the ground. The wheeled platform is pushed and moves forward at 3 m/s horizontally. When the cannonball is fired out, the cannon recoils (backward) with a velocity of 2 m/s relative to the ground. The cannonball then strikes a large solid block that weighs 32N and is sitting on the edge off a 50 m high cliff and becomes embedded in it. The combined mass is shot horizontally off the cliff. With what speed does the mass hit the ground at the bottom of the cliff?
