For a projectile motion, the angle between the velocity and acceleration is minimum and acute at

  1. A only one point
  2. B two points
  3. C three points
  4. D four points
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) only one point

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In projectile motion, centre of acceleration is directed towards the centre of earth and at peak point, the angle between velocity and acceleration is \(90^{\circ}\). because at peak point the vertical component of velocity is zero. Thus, it is minimum and acute at only one point (i.e. at heighest point)
