If a body is projected with an angle `theta` to the horizontal, then

A

it’s velocity always perpendicular to its accerleration

B

it's velocity becomes zero at its maximum height

C

it’s velocity makes zero angle with the horizontalat its maximum height

D

the body just before hitting the ground, the direction of velocity coincides with the acceleration.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

At maximum height of projectile velocity=horizontal component of velocity
