Expert Solution
Step 1

The shell experience only the gravitational force acting downward throughout its path. So, the acceleration of the shell is the gravitational acceleration along the vertical direction only and not on horizontal direction.

At maximum point the horizontal component of acceleration is 0

At maximum point the vertical component acceleration is 9.81 ms2  downward
