Seeing as how friction is resistance between two masses, I'd have to say no. Now, the ball IS subject to wind, rain, any kind of force or phenomenon that could alter its path or direction. But not friction.

A ball is thrown upward and caught when it comes back down In the presence of air resistance the speed with which it is caught is?

less than the speed it had when thrown upward.


How high can a ball go?

The maximum height of a thrown ball is dependent on the upward portion of the initial velocity. Air friction will slow it somewhat but gravity will cause it to lose most of its upward velocity. The velocity will decrease by 9.8 m/sec for each second of its upward motion, until it reaches zero. At that point, the ball is pulled back toward Earth.


What is the acceleration of a ball at the top of its trajectory when thrown straight upward?

zero


What happened to the ball when you thrown upward?

It comes back downward! :) enjoi!


What is tje velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft/sec?

If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 160 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 160t - 16t^2. If a ball is thrown vertically upward with a velocity of 160 ft/s, then its height after t seconds is s = 160t − 16t^2.

If there was no friction then the ball would just slide instead of roll


Does handedness effect the distance a ball is thrown?

No.


What kind of friction does a ball meet when it is thrown?

When a ball is thrown into the air, it encounters drag. Drag is the opposing force acting in the opposite direction of the ball. Drag slows down the ball's speed.
