Answer:

An example of positive velocity is throwing a ball upwards

An example of downward vertical velocity is when an object is dropped, for example a ball dropped from a height

Step-by-step explanation:

In a vertical movement the acceleration is always downwards, therefore negative since it is created by the attraction of the Earth on the body.

An example of positive velocity is throwing a ball upwards

An example of downward vertical velocity is when an object is dropped, for example a ball dropped from a height
