A ball is projected upwards. Its acceleration at the highest point is
- A Zero
- B directed upwards
- C directed downwards
- D such as cannot be predicted
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) directed downwards
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
A force is only required to maintain an acceleration. And in the case of a projectile that is moving upward, there is a downward force and a downward acceleration. That is, the object is moving upward and slowing down.
