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.

What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 feetsec?

The velocity of the ball is 16 feet/sec when it is thrown upward.


What force is not acting upon a ball that is thrown in the air?

The force of friction is not acting upon a ball that is thrown in the air. Friction is a force that opposes motion, but when a ball is thrown in the air, there is no surface contact for friction to act upon.


How will the speed of a ball thrown upward and a ball thrown downward compare upon striking the ground?

The speed of a ball thrown upward upon striking the ground will be the same as the speed at which it was thrown, but in the opposite direction. The speed of a ball thrown downward upon striking the ground will be faster than the speed at which it was thrown due to the acceleration from gravity.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft per second?

The initial velocity of the ball thrown upward at 16 ft per second is 16 ft/s.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft-sec?

The velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 ft/sec would be 16 ft/sec when it leaves the hand, but it will decrease due to gravity as it moves upward.


When ball is thrown upward what will be constant?

The only constant when a ball is thrown upward is the acceleration due to gravity acting in the opposite direction to the velocity of the ball. Other factors, such as air resistance and the initial velocity of the ball, may change as the ball moves.


Is a ball thrown upward consider a free falling body?

A ball thrown upward is not considered a free falling body because it initially moves against gravity. Free falling bodies accelerate downward due to gravity alone, while a ball thrown upward has an initial velocity in the opposite direction.


What is the velocity of a ball thrown upward at 16 feet and seconds?

The initial velocity of the ball is 16 feet per second when thrown upward. The velocity decreases as the ball travels upward due to gravity until it reaches its peak and starts to fall back down.


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?

Slower than the initial speed it was thrown upward with due to air resistance causing the ball to lose speed as it travels through the air. The force of air resistance acts against the direction of motion and slows down the ball.


Does handedness effect the distance a ball is thrown?

No.


What happened to the ball when you thrown upward?

When a ball is thrown upward, it experiences a brief period of acceleration while moving against the force of gravity. Once the ball reaches its peak height, it begins to fall back down due to gravity.


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.
