A rival pirate fires his volley back at the same 3.5m above the sea but at an angle of 23 coincidentally this scurvy dogs cannon also fires at 120 m/s also strangely coincidentally this cannonball also misses the sea how far did this canon ball travel?

1.065 km

Explanation:

The horizontal and vertical component of the canon ball when it's fired is

If we ignore air resistance, then gravitational acceleration g = -9.8m/s2 is the only thing that affects the vertical motion of the cannon ball. We can use the following equation to calculate the time it stays on air after it traveling h = -3.5m (down below the firing point) vertically

t = -0.07 or t = 9.64

Since t can only be positive we will pick t = 9.64

This is also the time it takes for the cannon ball to travel horizontally at the rate of 110.46 m/s

or 1.065 km

truck y has a greater velocity than truck x.
