when a Bowling ball(reactive ball) goes down the lane, generally the first 38-41 ft are covered with oil. The other 15 ft, the backend or dry is what the ball "hooks" or Reacts off of. the coverstock of the ball expounds the oil on the ball and the fricition between the ball and lane cause the ball to "hook"

What are uses of friction?
Friction is when you roll a bowling ball down an bowling alley or when you kick a soccer ball. Hope this helped
Why is friction important in bowling?
then you would not be able to grib the ball
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?
Friction
If we apply oil on door hinges the friction will?
Reduces
What are the principles of friction?
there is nothing called as principle of friction. friction is just a force which will act in the opposite direction of which you apply force.

What sports increase friction?
Bowling, curling, and tennis

What are sources of friction?
Driving a car down the street is a source of friction. Rolling a bowling ball down the lane is also an example of friction.
What does physics have to do with bowling?
Friction, (ball against floor), momentum, etc.
Why does a bowling bowl start to move slower with time?
Deceleration, friction, and gravity.

Friction
What physics is applied in bowling?
When you are playing bowling you exert energy by swaying your hands as you role the bowling ball to the bowling pin.The physics applied is Kinematics :) ====================== We call it rolling without slipping. Its an extraordinary motion which friction allows us to produce. Normally if we try to roll a circular object without friction it wont roll but it would slip on the surface. But on having friction we have a couple in action which is now able to produce torque. This torque helps the object to move forward.
How is friction applied?
Friction is applied, by making the surface of whatever you want to slide across it (the thing you want to apply friction to) is really rough. You can inscrease, and decrease the amount of friction acting on an object by changing the texture, material and smoothness of the surface. Smoother surfaces don't apply much friction to objects, and rougher surfaces apply a lot. An example of this, is Wellington Boots. They have rough underneaths, so you don't fall over - they apply a lot of friction.
How does friction and gravity affect your skill when bowling?
Friction and gravity affect your score, but not your skill.'Skill' is your ability to account for the effects of friction and gravity,while you plan the eventual outcome that you want to achieve.
When does rolling friction apply?
When things are rolling.
Where would you Increase friction in a bowling alley?
If it was my bowling center, I would increase friction on the three boards closest to the gutter on each side of the lane, and the first five feet of the approach. On the lane, the extra friction will reduce the number of gutter balls - which will make the occasional bowlers happier and encourage them to bowl more. On the approach, the extra friction will let you step off better.
