A golfer drives her golf ball from the tee down the fairway in a high arcing shot. When the ball is at the highest point of its flight a) the velocity and acceleration are both zero
b), The x-velocity is zero and thе y-velocity is zero
c) the x-velocity is non-zero, but the y-velocity is zero
d) thе velocity iѕ non- zero, but the acceleration is zero

Its velocity as well as acceleration are both non-zero.

As a result, the aforementioned response is correct.

Correct Choice: c)

Explanation:

When an object is launched with an angle with respect to the horizontal, it describes a curved path exclusively under the action of gravity.

The velocity at any point of the path has two components:

The horizontal component has a constant value because no acceleration acts in that direction.

The vertical component has a variable value that depends on the acceleration of gravity and the time.

When the golfer drives the golf ball in a high arcing shot it reaches a maximum height and then returns to the ground.

a) The velocity is never zero until the ball hits the ground. The acceleration is never zero. False

b) The x-velocity is constant and equal to the horizontal component of the initial velocity. The y-velocity is zero at the highest point. Only one condition is true, thus the whole statement is False.

c) The x-velocity is never zero, and the y-velocity is zero as explained above. True

d) The velocity is non-zero, and the acceleration is not zero. False

we need to know the time interval during which the force acts. impulse of force = momentum change
