both will have same kinetic energy ,so forward velocity will be lower for Bowling ball , the time to go up then down to the ground under gravity will be the same for both, so distance = velocity * time , so lighter (Golf)ball will travel further because its velocity is higher

second thoughts,

assume launch angle same for both, ball with greater launch velocity will travel further. (laws of ballistics)

if work done on ball (f * d) is same on both , the lighter ball will have greater launch velocity, though both will have same kinetic energy at launch

Is thrust measured with newtons?

Yes. Any unit of force can be used to indicate the amount of thrust.


Explain the difference between mass and weight?

The Difference:Mass - is the amount of matter in an objectWeight - the magnitude of gravitational force acting on an objectHow they are measured:Mass - balanceWeight - scaleUnit of measurement:Mass - grams (g) and kilograms (kg)Weight - newtons (N)


How many newtons in a lamp?

Only 1 but when he comes out he can only grant you 3.14 wishes. :) A newton is a unit of force. It's equal to 1 kg being accelerated at 1 m/s^2 Therefore the amount of "weight" an object has equal to its mass (in kg) multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2) So a 1 kg mass, has a weight of 9.8 Newtons (N) So if you're calculating the amount of Newtons in a lamp, it would depend on the mass of the lamp. If this is an electricity question ... you need units other than Newtons, as well as other information. Remember, in the metric system: mass is measured in kg, weight is measured in N. The confusing part is when using the US system in measurement where we unfortunately use pounds for both properties.


The strength of force is measured in?

Electric field strength is measured in Volts per meter, V/m OR equivalently, Newton per Coulomb, N/C.


What does the spring scale measure if measured in newtons?

A spring scale measures force in newtons. It works based on Hooke's law, which states that the force applied to a spring is directly proportional to the extension or compression of the spring. The scale calculates the amount of force required to extend or compress the spring.

What is pot bowling?

Pot bowling in tenpin bowling is when you are bowling for money. It may mean bowling against another player or a team against a team for an amount of money.


What tool measures newtons?

A spring scale or a force meter is a tool that measures force in newtons. It works by applying a force to an object and measuring the amount of stretch or compression of a spring. The reading on the scale corresponds to the amount of force applied in newtons.

The momentum of a bowling ball decreases by 0.5 kg meters per second when it hits some pins How much momentum did the pins gain Explain?

The pins gained the same amount of momentum that the bowling ball lost, according to the law of conservation of momentum. So, the pins gained 0.5 kg meters per second of momentum in the opposite direction to the bowling ball's initial momentum.


If oranges weigh 16.7 newtons on earth what would their weight change be on the moon?

on the moon it will weigh roughly 1/6 the amount of newtons as it does on earth. So 16.7 on earth would be about 2.8 newtons on the moon.


If you roll a bowling ball and a tennis ball with the same amount of force which will go further?

The experimental setup I envision is as follows: you get a sheet of melamine, stick it in the middle of the school gym, set one end on a sawhorse to create the slope, put the two balls at the top of the slope, let go of them at the same time and measure to see which one goes farther once it gets out onto the gym floor. Right? Because of the weights of the two balls, the bowling ball will travel farther. It can store more energy from gravity.
