When a ball is thrown vertically upwards, at the maximum height

A

the velocity is zero and therefore there isno acceleration acting on the particle

B

the acceleration is present and therefore velocity is not zero

C

the acceleration depends on the velocity as `a = dv/dt`

D

the acceleration is independent of the velocity
