Best answer

The ball thrown upwards from the earth goes up against the force of gravity. So, its velocity goes on decreasing at the rate of 9.8 m/s2. It becomes zero at a certain height. So, the ball stops there for a moment and then, begins to fall back to the earth due to the force of gravity, as any object dropped from that height.
