If it is thrown at an angle, at the top of its path, its vertical velocity will be zero, however its horizontal velocity will be the same as its initial horizontal velocity minus whatever loss in speed as a result of air friction at that point. We won't know what that is without more information.

What happens to a ball thrown straight down from a bridge would have acceleration of?
After being released, a ball thrown straight down from a bridge would have an acceleration of
A ball is thrown with enough speed straight up so that it is in the air several seconds What is the velocity of the ball when it gets to its highest point?
A the highest point its velocity will be zero.
How do forces help a ball speed up?
If a ball is thrown, the force pushing the ball will convert to energy to speed up the ball.
What is the weight at the very top of its motion if a ball is thrown straight up in the air?
A ball weighs 2.0N when placed on a scale. It is then thrown straight up.What is its weight at the very top of its motion? Explain
What is the acceleration of a ball at the top of its trajectory when thrown straight upward?
zero

Can an object ever have a velocity of zero if it moves from starting location?
Yes. An example of this would be a ball thrown straight up; at the very peak of its travel, it's not moving either up or down and therefore has an instantaneous velocity of zero.

zero
Why throwing a ball always put down in curve not in straight?
-- The only horizontal force on a thrown ball is the force of air resistance, so the horizontal acceleration is very small, and the horizontal speed stays almost constant. -- The vertical force on a thrown ball is the force of gravity, so the ball accelerates straight down at the acceleration of gravity. -- The result of unequal horizontal and vertical components of acceleration is a curved path.
When ball is thrown upward then applied force is constant why not speed of ball is constant?
because there if speed is constant than ball never come back to earth hence speed of ball is not constant
A ball is thrown straight up from the edge of the roof of a buildinga second ball is dropped from 1sec later ignore air resistance?
... and what is the question? The second ball should arrive at the floor a second after the first, both should have the same speed.
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.
A ball is thrown straight up with an initial speed of 20 m calculate its initial speed take g10 ms-2?
Its initial speed cannot be 20 m, as stated in the question. Secondly, if the initial speed is correctly given, then there is no need to calculate it!
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.
