Responses

at a point before the ball hits the ground
at a point before the ball hits the ground

when the ball is at its highest point

when the ball leaves the person’s hand

Answer 1

highest point

Step-by-step explanation:

at highest point , ball stops moving, velocity = 0

KE = 1/2 m v^2

= 1/2 m ( 0)^2 = 0 at highest point
