Which of this object that has more inertia Bowling ball or tennis?

Since the lightest tenpin bowling ball is currently 6 pounds and a table tennis ball is not even an ounce, the tenpin bowling ball is heavier.


Why does a basketball accelerate more than a bowling ball?

A basketball is lighter than a bowling ball.


Which has more volume a bowling ball or beach ball?

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 ...


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

a bowling ball


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.


Which has more inertia a bowling ball or beach ball?

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.


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 will require a greater force to move bowling ball or a baseball?

A bowling ball. An official NBA basketball weighs 22 ounces, which is less than two pounds. The bowling balls little kids play with weigh 6 to 8 pounds, and adults play with balls weighing from 12 to 16 pounds.


Does a 1 kilogram ball or a 10 kilogram ball have more momentum?

Inertia is directly proportional to mass. Unless you mean rotational inertia, in which case it depends on the shape, but for two objects of the same shape (and mass distribution), the more massive always has higher 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.


If you throw a ping pong ball and a golf ball with the same force which one will go the farthest Why?

a golf ball is heavier
