A golfer hits her ball in a high arcing shot. Air resistance is negligible. When the ball is at its highest point, which of the following is true?

- **A.** acceleration and velocity are both zero.
- **B.** the ball has zero velocity for a split second.
- **C.** the ball’s range is at a maximum.
- **D.** both the \(x\) and \(y\) components of velocity are zero.
- **E.** the \(x\) component of velocity is greater than the \(y\) component of velocity.
