Shot from a cannon In 1998, David “Cannonball” Smith set the distance record for being shot from a cannon (56.64 m). During a launch in the cannon’s barrel, his speed increased from zero to 80 km/h in 0.40 s. While he was being stopped by the catching net, his speed decreased from 80 km/h to zero with an average acceleration of 180 m/s2. What can you determine about Smith’s flight using this information?
