When Rae dropped a bowling ball from a height of 8 meters At which distance above the ground was the ball most likely moving at the greatest speed?

Still accelerating til it hits earth.
======================================
The height from which she dropped the ball is irrelevant. In any case, the ball was
most likely moving at the greatest speed just as it hit the ground. The answer to
the question is: zero.

Will a car or a bowling ball hit the ground first?
bowling ball
A bowling ball and a bag of potato chips are dropped at the same time from a tall tower on Earth. What happens?
The Bowling ball will hit the ground fist not because it has more mass but because it is less affected by wind resistance [resistance to its movement through the air] If the effect of wind resistance where [somehow] negated they would hit the ground at the same time. [The bag of potato chips: Open or closed? Assumed closed for this answer]
If a rock is dropped and a ball is thrown horizontally at the same initial elevation Which will have the greater speed when it reaches ground level?
at what q from the horizontal should be threw a rock so that it has greatest range
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 you remove air resistance from a room and drop an apple and a bowling ball simultaniously from the same distance will they land at the same time?
Yes, during his time galileo galilei state that if two objects were to fall at the same time at the same distance then they would both land at the same time. Many people didn't believe him, but when man first stepped on the moon the astronauts dropped a feather and a hammer and both touched the moon's surface at the same time. Since there is no air in space then there wouldn't be air resistance to keep the objects from reaching their destination at the same time.

What will hit the ground first a bowling ball or an apple?
Assuming both were dropped from the same height above ground, in a vacuum both would hit the ground at the same time. In a significant atmosphere (e.g. average ground-level on Earch) the bowling ball would hit the ground first.
Will a16 lb bowling ball and a 10 lb bowling ball dropped together reach the ground together?
Yes... Its not the weight but the force of gravity
Would a bowling ball and a penny hit the ground at the same time if dropped from an equal height?
Yes
What is the bowling ball and soccer ball thing again on newtons second law of motion?
A bowling ball and a soccer ball, dropped from the same height will hit the ground at exactly the same time.
Bowling ball and Apple dropped from same heigtht?
If you drop an apple from your right hand and a bowling ball from your left off the roof of the bowling alley, they will hit the parking lot at the same time.
Will a bullet travel the same distance straight up that it would horizontally?
No. The horizontal distance depends on how close the the ground the gun is. From the firing position, a bullet dropped to the ground will strike the ground in the same time as a bullet shot horizontally forward.

The distance between the ground surface and the water table is likely to be greatest in?
desert regions -------------------- a drought.
Imagine an experiment in which a 16lb bowling ball and a 10lb bowling ball are dropped from the fifth floor at the same time The heavier ball will reach the ground first?
No. They will hit the ground at the same time. The inertia for the heavier ball will be greater, but the acceleration for both will be the same, and both would (if the air resistance is the same for both) hit at the same time.
Is a bowling lane level?
No. It is on even ground.
Where do you go when a tornado wind takes you away?
Nowhere in particular. You get carried some distance, usually down wind, and get dropped back down to the ground.
