How does the total kinetic energy of a cannon and cannonball system change as the mass of the cannon increases and the energy of the blast remains the same?

A) the total kinetic energy cannot be determined

B) the total kinetic energy remains the same

C) the total kinetic energy increases

D) the total kinetic energy decreases

Taking the bullet, be back with the answers.
I got the first question right but failed the rest lol... Anywho! Here are the answers.
1. The velocity decreases and the kinetic energy decreases.
2. An increase in temperature difference between the inside and outside of the building.
3. The total kinetic energy remains the same.
4. 76.761 J
5. The energy loss must increase.
