The glider coasts upto near the top end, stops, and then slides back down. When the glider is at the highest point of its path, its acceleration is..A: straight downB: downward along the trackC: upward along the trackD: no direction, the acceleration is zero.CT2-9. A ball is thrown straight upward. At the top of its trajectory, its acceleration is..A: zeroB: straight upC: straight downD: depends on the mass of the ballACBCT2-10.
