A ball is thrown up,what is its velocity and acceleration at the top?

Open in App

Solution

When a body is thrown upward its velocity keeps on decreasing because of the deceleration due to acceleration due to gravity $(g)$ which pulls the body in downward direction $.$ At the maximum height velocity becomes zero $.$
Therefore $,$ velocity at the top is zero and acceleration is acceleration due to gravity $(g) .$
