Why will the adults bowling ball have more kinetic energy than a students?

The adult's bowling ball will have more kinetic energy because it has more mass and is likely moving at a higher velocity compared to the student's bowling ball. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass and the square of its velocity, so a heavier ball moving faster will have greater kinetic energy.


Which one would go faster with the same kinectic energy bowling ball or a golf ball?

Kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity. Therefore, an object with more mass, such as a bowling ball, would have to go slower than an object with less mass, such as a golf ball. So, if given the same amount of kinetic energy, a bowling ball will go faster than a golf ball, because it has more mass.


If a bowling ball and ping-pong ball are rolled down the highway at identical speed which ball has the greatest amount of kinetic energy?

The bowling ball has the greatest amount of kinetic energy because it has more mass compared to the ping-pong ball, even though they are traveling at the same speed. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass, so the object with higher mass will have more kinetic energy.

What kind of energy does a bowling ball have as it rolls toward the pins?

The bowling ball has both kinetic and potential energy as it rolls towards the pins. The kinetic energy comes from its motion, while the potential energy comes from its position relative to the ground.


If a golf ball and a bowling ball collide and the bowling ball keeps moving How did the golf ball's speed compare with the bowling ball's speed?

The force of the bowling ball colliding with the golf ball causes the golf ball to be redirected in an elastic collision. How fast either travels depends on the friction of the surface and the angle of contact with the bowling ball.Comparative Masses and EnergyIn the collision between a golf ball and a bowling ball, the fact that the bowling ball continues to move (although possibly changed in direction) is a function of the comparative masses of the two. The bowling ball is much more massive, so at normal velocities its kinetic energy exceeds the kinetic energy of the golf ball. In order to "stop" the bowling ball, the golf ball would have to make a perfectly aimed collision, and have a much higher velocity. Quantitatively, the velocity of the golf ball would have to be the inverse ratio of the ratio of the masses of the two balls, so that the kinetic energy (mass times velocity) is equal and in the opposite direction.Example : Golf ball at 45 g, ten pound bowling ball at 4500 g -- the golf ball would have to move at 100 times the velocity of the bowling ball to counteract its kinetic energy. If the bowling ball rolls at 2 m/sec, the golf ball would have to travel at more than 200 m/sec (720 kph or 447 mph), about 3 times a ball's normal velocity off the face of a golf club.


Why is a heavier bowling ball a greater advantage in bowling?

A heavier bowling ball can be a greater advantage in bowling because it has more momentum and energy when it hits the pins, increasing the chances of knocking down more pins with each roll.
