• 6.0 m/s²

• 3.0 m/s²

• 1.5 m/s²

A rock is thrown straight up into the air. At the highest point of the rock's path, the magnitude of the net force acting on the rock is

• less than the magnitude of the rock's weight, but greater than zero

• greater than the magnitude of the rock's weight

• the same as the magnitude of the rock's weight

• zero
