A baseball is thrown by the center fielder (from shoulder level) to home plate where it is caught (on the fly at shoulder level) by the catcher. At what point is the magnitude of the acceleration at a minimum? (air resistance is negligible) Hide answer choices a A) just after leaving the center fielder's hand B) acceleration is constant during entire trajectory at the top of the trajectory just before arriving at the catcher's mitt
