On earth: Potential energy = mgh
so: 2kg * 9,81m/s^2 * 5m = 98,1 Joule

Which has more momentum a golf ball or a bowling ball?

A bowling ball has more momentum. You cannot throw it as fast, but a tenpin ball weighs 16 pounds and a baseball only 1/3 pound. Momentum is mass times velocity and if you throw the bowling ball at 10 mph but the baseball at 90 mph the bowling ball still has much more momentum.


What is an example of Newton's third law of motion a ball sitting on the grass a bouncing ball a ball held in someone's hand or a ball thrown straight up in the air?

Newton's third law states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. So technically, all of the above, though a bouncing ball is the most obvious "reaction". However, even with sitting in a chair, the body and chair react to each other.

How do you measure the diameter of a bowling ball?

The instrument used to measure the diameter of spherical objects is called calipers.


A golf ball and a bowling ball have the same kinetic energy which is moving faster?

a golf ball because the weight is lighter and the wind helps iti think that the bowling ball will move faster because it has more mass.If my information was helpful please let me know in your comment!!Thank YouHOTGAL (!!EAGLE ALL DAII!!)^I think that's wrong.I think the bowling ball because it has more mass.My science teacher had this really good example:If you were standing in a hole,and I was rolling a bowling ball and a golf ball at you, which would change your face more?The bowling ball would change your face more.Here's another example which I got from my dad:If your dad and your younger sibling was running towards you,who would injure you more?It would be your dad because he has more mass than your younger sibling.Hope that helps.:D-Chubby Ninja

For each of the following situations state if the object has potential energy or kinetic energy. (a) a bowling ball rolling down the aney (b) a book sitting on the top sheIf of a bookcase?

(a) The bowling ball rolling down the alley has kinetic energy due to its motion. (b) The book sitting on the top shelf of the bookcase has potential energy due to its position above the ground.

Does a bowling ball sitting on a shelf have more potential energy than a baseball ball on the same shelf?

My bet is on the bowling ball. At 20000 ft the pull of gravity is only marginally smaller than that of the baseball bat at 2 ft above sea leval. Because both have been lifted to their respective hights giving them potential energy, I would keep out of the way of the ball.


Why doesn't gravity act upon a bowling ball being rolled in a bowling alley?

It does act upon it. If gravity weren't acting upon the ball, it would float into the air instead of remaining on the alley floor.


Will a bowling ball or a golf ball hit the ground first from two rooms high?

If air resistance can be ignored (and it probably can from 2 rooms high) then both the bowling ball and golf ball will hit the floor at the same time. Although the bowling ball is harder to get moving than than the golf ball (it has more mass), the bowling ball also has a greater force pulling it down than the golf ball (as measured by its weight). The result is that both objects have the same acceleration.


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.
