At highest point V y =0 V x = u x = u cos θ U g = mgh , it is maximum at H max

Q. For a body projected at an angle with the horizontal from the ground, choose the correct statement.

The Kinetic Energy (K.E.) is zero at the highest point of projectile motion.

The horizontal component of velocity is zero at the highest point.

The vertical component of momentum is maximum at the highest point.

Gravitational potential energy is maximum at the highest point.

At highest point
$V_{y} = 0$
$V_{x} = u_{x} = u cos θ$
$U_{g} = m g h,$ it is maximum at $H_{m a x}$
