an Ex from ur own experience in which the velocity of object is 0 for one instant, but its acceleration is not

Question

i dont understand the question...when is the velocity 0 for an instant while acceleration is not..

Answer 1

Take a frisbee in your hands, and spin it backwards while throwing it forwards (hard to describe in text, but I'm sure you've done it). You'll see it move forward until the acceleration that you put on it causes it to skip backwards towards you.

For one moment, it has no actual velocity, but it is accelerating backwards.

Answer 2

How about a ball thrown up in the air? At the top of its path, its velocity is zero, but the acceleration on it (due to gravity) is not.
