Which one of the following statements is true concerning the motion of an ideal projectile launched at an angle of 45 degrees to the horizontal?

The vertical speed decreases on the way up and increases on the way down.

The acceleration vector points opposite to the velocity vector on the way up and in the same direction as the velocity vector on the way down.

The speed at the top of the trajectory is zero.

The object's total speed remains constant during the entire flight.
