Yes. "Heavy" is an adjective, meaning it can describe a noun. Many times, an adjective is used before a noun, such as "beautiful blouse," beautiful being the adjective and blouse the noun. In this case, heavy could be used as an adjective in the sentence: "This heavy Bowling ball will cause back pains to the players."

No it is an adjective. Being heavy.. Being is the verb.
