Best Answer

Most likely the Bowling ball.

According to the laws of physics, an object with more inertia accelerates slower but is harder to stop.

The bowling ball accelerates slowly but has a high mass.

The beach ball accelerates quickly but has a low mass.

So the bowling ball has more inertia.

The answer completely depends on the height of the shelves on which they are stored.
Given a sufficiently elevated shelf, a single Baseball could have more gravitational potential
energy relative to the floor than an entire case of bowling balls on a low shelf has.

If the bowling ball and the baseball are at the same height, the bowling ball will have greater gravitational potential energy, because it has a greater mass.

Yes, no, maybe. It depends on how fast they're moving.

At the same speed, a bowling ball has much more kinetic energy than a Golf ball.

If both are moving at the same speed, then the bowling ball has more kinetic energy because of its greater mass.

Which of the following objects has the greatest inertia baseball bowling ball pencil or toothpick?

I think the golf ball has more inertia than ping pong ball, becuase of its weight. It is much heavy which result that it could stay at rest more, than a very lightweight ping pong ball.


Does a bowling ball on earth have more inertia than one on the moon?

No, a bowling ball (or any other object) has exactly the same inertial mass no matter where it is (its actual inertia will, of course, depend upon its velocity as well as its inertial mass). Weight changes on the moon, but inertia doesn't.


What exactly is inertia?

Inertia is the resistance of motion of an object. The more inertia, the harder it is to move something. The less inertia, the easier it is to move. Take a bowling ball and a marble. The marble can be flicked by the finger, because it has less inertia. The bowling ball takes the entire hand because it has more inertia than the marble. According to Newton's laws, an object that is moving tends to continue in motion. A moving object has inertia as it has Mass and Velocity. An object that is not moving requires a Force exerted on the Mass to start it moving.


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

a bowling ball


How does inertia help us?

Inertia deals with an objects reluctance to change its velocity. So if its not moving, you will have to exert a large force to get it to move. But once it is in motion, its inertia helps it move by lowering the breaking effect of resistance. If you throw a bowling ball through a grass field, it will go father than a beach ball thrown in a similar manner, because the bowling ball has more inertia!!


Is harder to stop a rolling bowling ball than a rolling ping pong ball when both are rolling at the same velocity Which is this an example of?

It is an example of momentum (sometimes called "inertia"). Velocity x mass. The bowling ball is much, much heavier. With both rolling at the same speed, the bowling ball is harder to stop because it has much more mass.
