Choose the correct reasoning of when a projectile reaches its highest point. A. A projectile reaches its highest point when its vertical velocity component is undefined. B. A projectile reaches its highest point when its horizontal velocity component is zero. C. A projectile reaches its highest point when its vertical velocity component is

A projectile reaches its highest point when its vertical velocity component is zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

In projectile motion, objects moves in parabolic path.

Projectile motion is a type of motion in which an object moves in a bilaterally symmetrical, parabolic path. Projection motion happens when the force is applied at the start of the trajectory (where the object follows) which follows an interference which is gravity. Gravity takes over and afterwards the object accelerates downwards. The acceleration is constant so the vertical velocity (Vy) varies linearly. The maximum height of the projectile which is the highest height is reached when the vertical velocity (Vy) is equal to zero.

After the projectile reaches its maximum height which is its highest point, it begins to drop downwards.
