Remember that this type of problem can be solved by applying the conservation of the linear amount of movement.
1: cannonball
2: boulder
m1v1i + m2v2i = m1v1f + m2v2f
v1f = v2f = vf (they fall together)
However, in this case we have:
"cannonball is fired into a stationary 500kg boulder"
Thus
v2i = 0
answer:
the initial speed of the boulder was 0 m / s (stationary 500kg boulder)
