There are Bowling balls with different masses. In general, if you weigh

one of them, its mass is 1 pound-mass for each pound of weight on earth,

or 1 kilogram for each 2.205 pounds of weight on earth.

-- 6-lb ball . . . 6 pound-mass / 2.722 kilograms

-- 12-lb ball . . . 12 pound-mass / 5.443 kilograms

-- 14-lb ball . . . 14 pound-mass / 6.350 kilograms

-- 15-lb ball . . . 15 pound-mass / 6.804 kilograms

-- 16-lb ball . . . 16 pound-mass / 7.257 kilograms

(all metric masses are rounded numbers)

Is the inertia of a bowling ball the same as a golf ball?

No, the inertia of a bowling ball is greater than that of a golf ball. Inertia is directly related to an object's mass, so the heavier the object, the greater its inertia. The mass of a bowling ball is much larger than that of a golf ball, resulting in greater inertia.


Is the mass of a bowling ball greater than the mass of a soccer ball?

Yes, because a bowling ball is more dense than a soccer ball. A bowling ball is solid all throughout while a soccer ball has its outer layer, but has air inside of it. Hope that this answer helps! :)


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.


Which object has the greatest inertia A. a tennis ball B a bowling ball C a beach ball or D a volley ball?

B. A bowling ball has the greatest inertia because it has the most mass compared to the other objects listed. Inertia is directly related to an object's mass, with greater mass resulting in greater inertia.

When does a feather have more mass than a bowling ball?

A feather would have more mass than a bowling ball only if you accumulate enough feathers to equal the mass of the bowling ball. Since a single feather is much lighter than a bowling ball, it would take a very large number of feathers—potentially thousands or even millions, depending on the feather's size and type—to surpass the mass of the bowling ball. In practical terms, individual feathers are never more massive than a bowling ball.

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.

What makes a bowling ball harder to stop than a soccer ball when they are both traveling at the same speed?

The bowling ball is harder to stop because it has a greater mass, and therefore a greater momentum. But the answer is that the bowling ball has a greater mass.

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.


What is the mass of a 7.0-kilogram bowling ball on the surface of the moon?

Gravity does not affect total mass, no matter where in the universe the bowling ball travels. Therefore, a 7 kilogram bowling ball will always be 7 kilograms.
