A military gun is mounted on a railroad car (m = 1419 kg) as shown in the figure below There is no frictional force on the car, the track is horizontal, and the car is initially at rest. The gun then fires a shell of mass 40 kg with a velocity of 299 m/s at an angle of 35° with respect to the horizontal. Find the recoil velocity of the car?
