A Tennis Ball Is Thrown Upward at an Angle from Point

Question 22

Multiple Choice

A tennis ball is thrown upward at an angle from point A. It follows a parabolic trajectory and hits the ground at point D. At the instant shown, the ball is at point B. Point C represents the highest A tennis ball is thrown upward at an angle from point A. It follows a parabolic trajectory and hits the ground at point D. At the instant shown, the ball is at point B. Point C represents the highest   -While in flight, how do the x and y components of the velocity vector of the ball compare at the points B and C? A) The velocity components are non-zero at B and zero at C. B) The x components are the same; the y component at C is zero m/s. C) The x components are the same; the y component has a larger magnitude at C than at B. D) The x component is larger at C than at B; the y component at B points up while at C, it points downward. E) The x component is larger at B than at C; the y component at B points down while at C, it points upward.
