Answer:

A

Explanation:

Given that a student throws a ball upward with a force of 50.0 Newtons. The ball reaches a maximum height of 15.0 meters in 2 seconds and then returns back to

his hands. 

At maximum height which is the top, the velocity is equal to zero.

According to definition of acceleration, which says; the rate of change of velocity.

Since velocity equal zero, acceleration also will be equal to zero.

Therefore, there is no acceleration at the top.
