How much work is done when you roll a 75 newton bowling ball horizontally down a bowling lane?

In order to answer the question, you will need to know the coefficient of friction and the magnitude of the air resistance.
For example, if the c.o.f=0.1 (and ignoring air resistance)
Work Done = Force x Distance
WD= (0.1 x 75) x 18.29(m)
WD = 137.175 Joules

What is negative work done?
Hold your open hand at shoulder-height, and have your associate carefully place a bowling ball in your hand. Now allow the hand and bowling ball to descend slowly to the floor. Your hand has done 'negative work', equal to the (weight of the ball) times (distance it descended).
Can a person resurface their own bowling ball themselves?
Yes. Resurfacing is done by people themselves.
How many times can you redrill a bowling ball?
Couple times...if done carefully maybe more
What is a bowling adjustment?
Commonly, a bowling adjustment, is referring to either where a bowler is standing or where a bowling is aiming when throwing the ball. This is done in order to better have the ball hit the "pocket" or for picking up spares. When getting into more advanced bowling techniques, you will find that you will be making adjustments though out each game as the oil on the lane breaks down and your shot changes.
What is the most expensive bowling ball ever?
The heaviest a bowling ball can be in competition is 16lbs. If a ball is over 16lbs your scores will be forfeited. Sometimes a ball is over 16lbs before it is drilled but it has to be under 16lbs when the drilling is done. This is starting not to be a problem because many people are switching to 15lb balls.
Can you use soap and water to clean bowling balls?
no! windex will pull the natural oil out of the ball eventually causing the surface to peel off. the only thing u need to use to clean a ball is powerwash and a microfiber towl from any proshop.
Why is a ball bouncing off a wall an example of newtons third law of motion?
According to newton's second law of motion action and reaction are equal in magnitude.So,when we throw a ball on wall it bounces back,when ball strike the wall it is the action which is done by ball on wall as a result ball produces reaction due to which ball bounces back.Thus bouncing of a ball is an example of Newton's second law of motion. Thankyou
When a ball is rolling and stopped with your fingers is force or work applied?
Newton's 2nd Law says if the momentum of a body is changing there is a forcing acting upon it. If the ball moves your fingers, then work is done by it.
Explain using Newton's second law Why can you throw a golf ball further than a bowling ball even though you throw both at the same angle and with the same amount of force?
both will have same kinetic energy ,so forward velocity will be lower for bowling ball , the time to go up then down to the ground under gravity will be the same for both, so distance = velocity * time , so lighter (golf)ball will travel further because its velocity is higher second thoughts, assume launch angle same for both, ball with greater launch velocity will travel further. (laws of ballistics) if work done on ball (f * d) is same on both , the lighter ball will have greater launch velocity, though both will have same kinetic energy at launch
Does putting a bowling ball in water affect the ball?
Depending on the coverstock of the bowling ball it will. It wont really affect a plastic ball, but if you have a reactive resin (which is designed deliberately to absorb oil) it may absorb SLIGHT amounts of water as well. Depending on the temperature, it may expand or contract as well. No real DAMAGE will be done though. In fact, one method for deep cleaning your equipment is to let it soak in mildly warm soapy water for an hour or two.
Will the bowling ball and piece of paper fall at the same rate?
If you stand at the top of the bowling alley with a feather in one hand and a bowling ball in the other and drop them at the same time, the bowling ball will hit the parking lot first because wind currents will cause the feather to drift slowly.
How do you keep score in no tap bowling?
Scoring is done as normal, however if 9 pins or all pins are knocked down with the first ball, the score is considered a strike for scoring purposes.
