A bowling ball rolling down a long lane gradually slows as it rolls How would Aristotle interpret this observation?
Aristotle postulated two different forms of motion: natural motion (such as gravity, smoke rising) and violent motion, meaning applied by exterior forces.
Without the concepts of friction or inertia, he would have likely ascribed the slowing of the ball to the gradual diminishing of whatever force started the ball rolling, that it could not propel the ball indefinitely.
If the ball was on a slanted surface, its continued motion would be the same "natural force" that causes objects to fall, which we now know as gravity. However, he assumed that heavier objects fell faster than lighter ones.
What else can I help you with?
If a bowling ball is moving torwards the bowling pin which direction is the net force acting?
The net force would be in the direction of the bowling ball's motion, which in this case would be towards the bowling pin.
What is the acceleration of a bowling ball when at rest at the end of the bowling lane?
The acceleration of a bowling ball at rest at the end of the bowling lane is 0 m/s^2. Since the ball is not changing its velocity, it is not experiencing any acceleration.
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.
If soccer ball and a bowling ball are about the same size why does the bowling ball have more mass?
A soccer ball is hollow and filled with air, which has little density. A bowling ball is solid material of a much greater density. * Because bowling balls have a standard size, about 21.8 cm in diameter, bowling balls weighing less than 5.4 kg (12 lb) will float in water.
If a bowling ball and a soccer ball are rolling along the ground at the same speed the bowling ball has more of this because its mass is greater?
The bowling ball has more momentum because momentum is directly proportional to an object's mass and velocity. Since the two balls are moving at the same speed, the greater mass of the bowling ball results in it having more momentum.
