At the maximum height of a body thrown vertically up

Whenever a body is thrown up with a certain velocity, the upward motion is opposed by gravitational pull of earth and also by the resistance of air. Therefore, velocity of the body goes on decreasing.When this velocity becomes zero, the body cannot rise further. It has attained, what is called 'maximum height'. from this height, the body begins to fall downloads under the action of gravity. Read the above passage and answer the following question: (i)At the highest point, what are the velocity and acceleration of the body? (ii)What is the maximum height attained by a body thrown upwards with a velocity of 19.6 m//s? Take g=9.8 m//s^(2) . (iii) What value in life do you learn from this concept ?
