Does a basketball roll faster on a smooth surface or a rough surface?
on a smooth surface
What surface will ball roll fastest on?
Dirt , assuming it is flat and dry . The answer depends upon the velocity of the ball and what resistance there is in either the dirt or grass .
What surface will a ball roll fastest?
ON a slanted surface
What cant ball roll continously on rough surface?
Energy will gradually be lost.Energy will gradually be lost.Energy will gradually be lost.Energy will gradually be lost.
Why can't you roll a ball forever on a level surface?
because friction acts on the ball.
How do you make a ball roll slowly down a ramp?
apply friction a rough surface cardboard for example, the rougher it is the slower the ball will roll but to much friction and it will stop altogether.

on a smooth surface
Which surface lets a ball roll farthest?
A ball rolling along any surface will be slowed by friction. Different materials used for the ball and the rolling surface will affect the distance a ball will roll but in general, the smoother and more polished the surface is, the further a ball will roll.

Why would a ball roll better on one surface vs the other?
a ball would roll better on one surface vs the other because one surface may have more friction the the other surface. For example a smooth surface like a polished wooden floor would have a ball roll better than a carpet where the hairs are stopping the progression of the ball.
Does a ball need to be on a flat surface to roll?
yes
Why can't you roll a ball forever on a level surface?
because friction acts on the ball.
Is the effect of grass or dirt surface on the distance a ball can roll?
Grass makes a ball roll slower then it would on a dirt surface. This is because the long grass blades cause more friction on the ball slowing it down.
If a bowling bowl ball and a tennis ball were pushed on a lever surface with the same amount of force what would happen?
Since F= ma the much lighter tennis ball would receive much more acceleration and ,consequently, roll much farther, how far depend on the rolling surface. If they received the same initial velocity, they theoretically would roll the same distance bu it would again depend on the surface.
It is possible to make a frictional less surface on which a ball will roll without end?
It is impossible to create a frictionless surface upon which a ball will roll without stopping. This is firstly because no two surfaces have a fritional constant of zero in that there is no surface which is perfectly smooth. Also, even if there were a true frictionless surface, a ball would not be able to roll along it forever due to air resistance.
