Answer:before throwing and after catching the ball

Explanation:

When basketball is in the hand of player net force on it zero as holding force is canceled by gravity Force. During its entire motion gravitational force is acting on the ball which is acting downward. Even at highest point gravity is constantly acting downwards.

After catching the ball net force on it zero as holding force is canceled by gravity force and ball is continue to be in stationary motion.

If you throw a raw egg against a wall, you'll break it, but if you throw it with the same speed into a sagging sheet it won't br
SashulF [63]
<span>The egg doesn't break when it hits the sheet because the impact time is longer. Momentum means the egg is slowed rather than coming to an abrubt halt. The softer the object that the egg hits, the longer the time it takes to break. A sheet is so soft that the force is never high enough for the egg to break.</span>
