Jerry has managed to hack into the operating software of Mechano (mM = 2.50 kg), the evil robot cat. The picture shows Jerry having Mechano fire a projectile (mp = 0.240 kg) at Tom, the cat.

Part B: How much energy (?E) is released by the gunpowder that explodes inside the cannon when the projectile is fired?
