Assertion At highest point of a projectile, dot product of velocity and acceleration is zero.

Reason At highest point, velocity and acceleration are mutually perpendicular.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: A

If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

Option A is correct because at the highest point, the velocity is horizontal, and the acceleration is vertical (due to gravity), making them perpendicular, hence their dot product is zero.
