The previous answerer is wrong. A thrown ball, with gravity acting on a freely falling object after an initial thrust, follows a parabolic arc, not hyperbolic. I don't know what an application for hyperbolic coordinates would be, but my calculator can do them too. I guess someone must find them useful.

tracing the path of a ball thrown. when you throw a ball in the the air gravity pulls it back down creating a hyberolic graph
