Yes, force is required to throw a ball upward. The force applied by your arm gives the ball its initial velocity to overcome gravity and travel upward.

When you throw a ball upward its kinetic energy what?

When you throw a ball upward, its kinetic energy decreases as it moves against gravity due to the work done by the force of gravity. As the ball reaches its highest point, its kinetic energy is at its minimum while potential energy is at its maximum.


How can you throw a ball as hard as you can and have it come back to you?

You must throw the ball upward because of gravity, you have gravity forcing the ball downward as you push the ball with force upward, and as they say what goes up must come down, which in the end results to the ball coming down towards you.


When you throw a ball your hand applies blank to the ball?

When you throw a ball, your hand applies force to the ball. The force propels the ball forward, giving it speed and direction.

Is work done when you throw a ball?

Yes, work is done when you throw a ball. When you exert force on the ball to throw it, you are transferring energy to the ball, thus doing work on it. This work results in the ball gaining kinetic energy as it moves.


What forces are needed to throw a ball?

When you throw a ball, you mainly use the force generated by your muscles to propel the ball forward. This force is transferred to the ball through your arm. Additionally, the force of gravity acts on the ball once it is released, causing it to fall towards the ground.


What is the number of forces acting on a ball when you throw it?

When you throw a ball, two forces are typically acting on it: the force exerted by your hand pushing the ball forward, and the force of gravity pulling the ball down towards the ground.


If you have 3 balls on the top of a building and one is dropped. one is thrown downward. and one is thrown up and then goes downward Which has the fastest volocity when it hits the ground?

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).
