Someone more experienced should answer this but the easiest way is to use the built-in physics and apply impulse to the object.

object:applyLinearImpulse( 0, -10 )

If you only need a jump without collision detection and stuff like that, you should be able to move the object along a curve with proper easing effect. This tutorial could be useful if you want to try that:
