[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1165701, member: 56232"] If he threw it up with no velocity backwards, the ball would come back down approximately in the same position as where he is if he keeps running at a set pace (slightly backwards due to air resistance). The fact the ball goes some way backwards relative to him means he must have thrown in backwards with some velocity. The players travels 6m in the time it takes the ball to drop back down, the ball has travelled forwards 3m in that same time, so the player must have thrown it backwards approximately half as fast as he was running forwards.
