You throw a baseball straight up, and because of air resistance some of the ball's energy is converted to thermal energy during the whole trip.
Which takes longer: the trip up or the trip down?
When tha ball is thrown up, air resistance and gravity are applying force in the downward direction due to which the ball will reach the top faster but when the ball is falling down the force due to air resistance is opposing gravity the ball will take longer to travel the same distance back down
So the trip down will take longer

Physics Homework A baseball is thrown straight up with initial speed If air resistance cannot be ignored, when the ball returns to its initial height its speed is less than Explain why, using energy concepts.
throw a ball straight up into the air with initial velocity vi. (neglect air resistance). how long will it take for the ball to come back to its initial position? what is the maximum height the ball reaches?
You throw a ball straight up, and it lands with 2/3 the speed with which you threw it. What fraction of the initial kinetic energy was lost during the time the ball was in the air?
Assume that the maximum horizontal distance you can throw a baseball (m = 0.145 kg) at an angle of α0 = 45∘ above the horizontal is 25 m. Part A) What is the kinetic energy of the baseball just after it leaves your hand? Ignore air resistance and the small distance the ball is above the ground when it leaves your hand. Take the zero of potential energy to be at the ground. Part B) At the ball's maximum height,...
You throw a doughnut with a mass of 0.10 kg straight up from the ground and it reaches a maximum height of 20.0 m. How much kinetic energy does the doughnut have when it is 15.0 m above the ground? (assume no air resistance)
When you throw a ball straight up, it slows down until it comes to a stop at its greatest height and then accelerates downward. The time it takes for a ball thrown upward to reach a height, , is given by . The initial velocity needed to get it to that height is given by How long will a ball be in the air on Earth that you throw to a height of 6.525 m?
43. Analyze You throw a ball straight up into the air. ches a maximum height and returns to your hand. what location(s) is the kinetic energy of the ball (a) a maximum and (b) a minimum? At what location(s) is the potential energy of the ball (c) a maximum and (d) a minimum? At
You throw a small rock straight up from the edge of a highway bridge that crosses a river. The rock passes you on its way down, 5.00 s after it was thrown. What is the speed of the rock just before it reaches the water 27.0 m below the point where the rock left your hand? Ignore air resistance.
You throw a ball straight up from a rooftop. The ball misses the rooftop and eventually strikes the ground A mathematical model can be used to describe the relationship for the ball's height above the ground, y. after x seconds. x, seconds after the ball is y, ball's height, in feet, above the ground 289 271 214 on its way down thrown 3 4 2 a. Find the quadratic function y= - ax +bx + c whose graph passes through...
You are in the middle of a football field and you throw a ball straight up in the air and you catch the ball at the same height at which you let it go. While ignoring air resistance (drag), sketch the Velocity vs. Time and Acceleration vs. Time curves for the ball once it was released from your hand until you catch it. Be sure to title and label everything on the graphs. Label the points on the curve when...
