Answer

$v=-v_{0}$

Explain

When an object is thrown upward in the absence of air resistance, it will decelerate until it reaches its peak height, then accelerate back downwards due to gravity. Upon returning to its original height, its velocity will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to its initial velocity.
