Need some explanation on Physics question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

An object is thrown into the air at an angle of 30 degrees above the horizontal. If we ignore air friction, what is the vertical acceleration and the vertical velocity when the object reaches its maximum displacement?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I understand that the velocity vertically will be zero because the object stops once it reaches the maximum height but what about the acceleration?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

gravity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-9.81m/s2?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But isn't acceleration affected by the velocity?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

nope, the acceleration is constant, The velocity is affected by the acceleration

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

Just as the position is affected by the velocity, (not the other way around)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So for the this same question, what would the acceleration to time graph, velocity time graph and position time graph of the question look like?

OpenStudy (unklerhaukus):

on an Time vs Vertical Acceleration plot, the vertical acceleration will a horizontal line (below the x axis )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What would the vt and pt look like?
