0 zero
The acceleration is the acceleration of gravity, downwards, or 9.8m/s/s (32 ft/s/s). When ball is thrown straight up it has an initial velocity that is decreasing because of gravity; at the highest point velocity is zero but acceleration is always constant at gravity rate.
For example, an object thrown upwards, when it is at its highest point. This situation is only possible for an instant - if the acceleration is non-zero, the velocity changes, and can therefore not remain at zero.
A the highest point its velocity will be zero.
Yes, but only for an instant. For example, if you throw a stone up, when it is at its highest point it has a velocity of zero, but its acceleration is -9.8 m/s2. If there is acceleration, the velocity can not remain at zero.
If it is thrown at an angle, at the top of its path, its vertical velocity will be zero, however its horizontal velocity will be the same as its initial horizontal velocity minus whatever loss in speed as a result of air friction at that point. We won't know what that is without more information.

No, the acceleration at the highest point is never 0.

Answer:Yes, but only instantaneously.Consider a thrown ball moving directly upward. At the highest point of its trajectory, the instanataneous velocity (the velocity at that precise instant) is zero even while the acceleration due to gravity remains non zero.
If it is thrown at an angle, at the top of its path, its vertical velocity will be zero, however its horizontal velocity will be the same as its initial horizontal velocity minus whatever loss in speed as a result of air friction at that point. We won't know what that is without more information.
The highest point is the point where the ball's velocity transitions from upward to downward. At that instant, the ball's speed, velocity, momentum, and kinetic energy are all exactly zero.
Yes. A typical example is an object thrown directly up - this will happen when it is at its highest point, just before it falls back down again.
0 ms-2 upwards
Yes. If you throw an object up, the moment it is at its highest point, the velocity at that instant will be zero, whereas the acceleration is -9.8 meters per second square. In other words, the velocity won't remain zero for a long time.
