If it's a ball like a tennis ball, an old ball would be smoother and would have less drag.
A ball thrown down. The thrown ball will have a greater initial velocity and since they experience the same force of gravity, it will always be faster (until they both reach terminal velocity).

The average velocity of a thrown football is from 40 to 60 MPH. Although there has been faster velocities recorded.
The velocity of such an object changes all the time. Assuming you throw something directly upwards and there is no wind, it will go upwards, slower and slower, until it reaches its highest point. At that moment, its velocity is zero. Then, still as a result of gravity, it will move downward, faster and faster.
The velocity of the ball is 16 feet/sec when it is thrown upward.
A projectile thrown with a greater velocity would travel a greater distance. Velocity is not just speed but direction as well.
A projectile thrown with a greater velocity would travel a greater distance. Velocity is not just speed but direction as well.
As velocity never exceeds the velocity of light.... so i hope a man running with the velocity of light will not be able to throw a ball with any velocity.......... we may get the maximum n minimum velocity with which that can be thrown mathematically that we may get it to be zero................
In the case of constant velocity (or speed), velocity = distance / time.
The vertical component of the initial velocity of the ball thrown horizontally from a window is zero. The ball's initial velocity in the vertical direction is influenced only by the force of gravity, not the horizontal throw.
The thrown ball will (usually) have the highest velocity as the acceleration (resultant of force) used to throw it exceeds that of the other two balls. The ball thrown upward will have a higher downward velocity than the dropped ball even though their accelerations (due to gravity) are the same, as it has more time to travel downward. Although, If the ball thrown upward is thrown high enough, it may even travel faster than the ball thrown downward if the downward throw's force is not enough to beat the ball's terminal velocity (quite a bit of height would be required though).
If the projectile is thrown with a greater velocity, it would travel further and potentially reach a higher peak height. The increased velocity would also result in a shorter flight time and the projectile hitting the ground with a greater impact force.
