MCQ
A body is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity $u$. Find the true statement from the following
  • A
    Both velocity and acceleration are zero at its highest point
  • B
    Velocity is maximum and acceleration is zero at the highest point
  • C
    Velocity is maximum and acceleration is $g$ downwards at its highest point
  • Velocity is zero at the highest point and maximum height reached is $u^2 / 2 g$

Answer

Correct option: D.
Velocity is zero at the highest point and maximum height reached is $u^2 / 2 g$
(d) At highest point $v=0$ and $H_{\max }=\frac{u^2}{2 g}$
