The state of equilibrium of a rolling ball occurs when the forces acting on it are balanced, resulting in no acceleration. In this state, the ball will continue rolling at a constant speed in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force.

What is rest position or equilibrium position?

Rest position or equilibrium position occurs when all the forces (gravity, the wind, friction etc) exerted on an object are equal.For example, a rolling ball is not in equilibrium because one or more forces (gravity or the force you used to initially move the ball) are greater in strength than the friction (both between the ball and the surface it is rolling on and between the ball and the air).The ball will stop rolling when the force causing it to move 'forwards' is overcome by frictional force. The ball will then be in equilibrium, or at rest.


Is a ball rolling in a straight line at a constant speed in equilibrium?

Yes. Because it is moving at a constant speed, we know that it is not accelerating (changing its speed). This means that all forces acting on it are balancing each other, so the net force is 0.


Is the ball equilibrium?

It depends on the context. If the ball is not moving and is at rest, then it is in a state of equilibrium. If the ball is in motion but not accelerating or decelerating, it could also be considered in equilibrium.


A ball resting on the floor is in what kind of equilibrium?

The ball is in stable equilibrium because it is at rest in its lowest energy state. If displaced slightly, it will return to its original position.


A bowling ball is at rest Another ball rolls down a lane at constant speed Which if either is in equilibrium?

I believe, if I'm not mistaken, they are both at the equilibrium. However, if I had to say one, it's the bowling ball at rast. "Physics. The state of a body or physical system at rest or in unaccelerated motion in which the resultant of all forces acting on it is zero and the sum of all torques about any axis is zero." -- Answers.com

An idle ball because the reverse momentum of a rolling ball makes it harder to kick far.


What affects the speed of a rolling ball?

The factors that affect the speed of a rolling ball include the force applied to the ball, the incline or surface it is rolling on, the mass and size of the ball, and the presence of friction. A greater force, steeper incline, lighter ball, and lower friction will generally result in a faster rolling speed.


What is the meaning of the idiomatic expression to start the ball rolling?

It's just a slangy way of saying "let's get started." The image is of a ball game and you're starting the game by rolling out the ball. You can also "keep the ball rolling" by continuing whatever you're doing.
