Answer:it can not happen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point in the motion in which the velocity is zero and the acceleration is zero simultaneously is not possible.

Considering the definition of acceleration. Acceleration can be defined ad the change in velocity with time. This is equal to the gradient of velocity-time graph.

When the magnitude of velocity is at its peak maximum, there will be a point, a stationary one. And, at that particular point the gradient is zero, therefore the value of acceleration is zero.

If their is an acceleration, velocity will continue to change with time
