Dave throws a 10 kg bowling ball straight up in the air. At the very tippy-top of its path, what is it's momentum?

Answer:Zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

mass of ball
m=10\ kg

If the ball is thrown upward then at maximum point velocity of ball is zero because ball is no longer able to move upward

Momentum(P) of a particle is given by


P=mass* velocity


P=10* 0


P=0

Therefore at the highest point momentum is zero .
