A Projectile Starts at the Coordinate Origin,where the Displacement Vector θ\theta

Question 21

Multiple Choice

A projectile starts at the coordinate origin,where the displacement vector also originates.The initial velocity,v0,makes an angle θ\theta 0 with the horizontal where 0 < θ\theta 0 < 90 °\degree .At the instant when the projectile is at the highest point of its trajectory,the displacement,velocity and acceleration vectors are r\overrightarrow { \mathbf { r } } , v\overrightarrow { \mathbf { v } } and a\overrightarrow { \mathbf { a } } .Which statement is true?


A) r\overrightarrow { \mathbf { r } } is parallel to v\overrightarrow { \mathbf { v } } .
B) r\overrightarrow { \mathbf { r } } is perpendicular to v\overrightarrow { \mathbf { v } } .
C) v\overrightarrow { \mathbf { v } } is parallel to a\overrightarrow { \mathbf { a } } .
D) v\overrightarrow { \mathbf { v } } is perpendicular to a\overrightarrow { \mathbf { a } } .
E) r\overrightarrow { \mathbf { r } } is perpendicular to a\overrightarrow { \mathbf { a } } .
