What are 3 criteria for acceleration?
Temka [501]

I don't think you mean 'criteria'.  I think you mean three occurrences or
observations that indicate the presence of acceleration.

They are:

-- an object is speeding up
-- an object is slowing down
-- the direction of an object's motion is changing .

Any one of these changes is acceleration.

There's a single term that covers them all.  It is "change in velocity".

During a circus performance, a 72-kg humancannonball is shot out of an 18-m-long cannon. If thehuman cannonball spends 0.95 s in
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

2872.8 N

Explanation:

We have the following information

m =n72kg

Δy = 18m

t = 0.95s.

From here we use the equation

Δy=1/2at2 in order to solve for the acceleration.

So a

=( 2x 18m)/(0.95s²)

= 36/0.9025

= 39.9m/s2.

From there we use the equation

F = ma

F=(72kg) x (39.9)

= 2872.8N.

2872.8N is the average net force exerted on him in the barrel of the cannon.

Thank you!
