mass of the object (times) gravitational acceleration (times) height the object reaches.


Consider a ball thrown upward It goes to its highest point and then falls until you catch it at the bottom of its flight What is the acceleration of the ball at its highest point?

0 ms-2 upwards


Can an object have a speed of 0 while it has an acceleration that is not 0?

Yes. Acceleration is independent of speed. A perfect example of an object with zero speed but nonzero acceleration is an object at the apex of being thrown upward. The entire time it is in the air it is accelerating downward. At its maximum height its speed is zero.


What is the acceleration of a ball at the top of its trajectory when thrown straight upward?

zero


How does acceleration change when object is thrown veritcally upward under ideal conditions?

From the time the object leaves your hand, its acceleration doesn't change at all ... it remains constant at 9.8 meters (32.2 feet) per second2 downward. Well, we have to admit that the acceleration does change to zero once the object hits the ground.

Do you agree with the statement an object with a zero velocity can have an acceleration greater than zero?

Do you agree with the statement, "An object with a zero velocity can have an acceleration greater than zero."? Explain your answer.


What is the acceleration of a stone at the top of its trajectory when it has been thrown straight upward?

0 m/s per second


What is the upward acceleration of a falling object?

If you are ignoring wind and other variables then the upward acceleration is negative velocity caused by gravity. So in most cases (-9.8 m)/(s^2)


When will objects thrown upward start to go down?

When the vertical component of their velocity has dwindled to zero because of the acceleration of gravity.
