A ball is projected with velocity V_0 at an angle of elevation 30^ . Mark the correct statement.

JEE Main Physics question

A ball is projected with velocity at an angle of elevation . Mark the correct statement.

(A)Kinetic energy will be zero at the highest point of the trajectory
(B)Vertical component of momentum will be conserved
(C)Horizontal component of momentum will be conservedCorrect
(D)Gravitational potential energy will be minimum at the highest point of the trajectory

Answer: (C)

No horizontal force acts during the flight, so the horizontal momentum component is conserved; vertical momentum changes due to
