Question: A body is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity $ u $ . Find the true statement from the following [Kerala 2001]
Options:
A) Both velocity and acceleration are zero at it’s highest point
B) velocity is maximum and acceleration is zero at the highest point
C) velocity is maximum and acceleration is $ g $ downwards at it’s highest point
D) Velocity is zero at the highest point and maximum height reached it’s $ u^{2}/2g $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
At highest point $ v=0 $ and $ {H _{\max }}=\frac{u^{2}}{2g} $
