What will happen to a bowling ball if the bowling lane offers no friction?

The ball would slide and never roll. Also, it would continue straight in the direction
it was going when you let go of it, and never curve or hook.

What are uses of friction?
Friction is when you roll a bowling ball down an bowling alley or when you kick a soccer ball. Hope this helped
If a bowling ball and a soccer ball are rolling along the ground at the same speed the bowling ball has more of this because its mass is greater?
Friction
Why is friction important in bowling?
then you would not be able to grib the ball
True or false if you drop a feather and a bowling ball from a three story building at the same time the bowling ball hits the ground first?
In a vacuum, both will hit at the same time. The bowling ball will do so in normal atmosphere due to the friction of the air.
Friction always acts in a direction?
Friction always acts in the direction opposite to the the motion of the object.For example, if a bowling ball rolls to the right, friction would act to the left.Without friction, if you threw a ball, it would keep going forever. Friction slows objects down.

What does physics have to do with bowling?
Friction, (ball against floor), momentum, etc.
Is it important static friction on a bowling ball?
Yes, if you want to curve the ball before it hits the pins.
What are sources of friction?
Driving a car down the street is a source of friction. Rolling a bowling ball down the lane is also an example of friction.
What is an example for friction using bowling balls?
Two come to mind, the ball slows down as it goes further down the alley. as the ball spins, the friction generated causes the ball to curve.
What force causes a bowling ball to roll down the hill?
No. Speed and force cause a bowling ball to roll down a lane. Friction may cause a bowling ball to change course on a lane though, and also slow it down.
True or false if you drop a feather and a bowling ball from a three story building at the same time the bowling ball hits the ground first?
In a vacuum, both will hit at the same time. The bowling ball will do so in normal atmosphere due to the friction of the air.
What is easier to roll a bolling ball on?
A flat, smooth surface would be ideal for rolling a bowling ball successfully. Usually, wooden floors that were waxed are used in bowling lanes. This gives the bowling ball less friction, thus, giving it more acceleration and less slowing down.

Which has more mass a bowling ball or a table tennis ball?
a bowling ball
