Yes, the two Bowling balls will hit the ground at the same time. The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is approximately 9.8 m/s2 [downward] and this applies to all objects; it does not change depending on the mass of an object. As a result, any two objects dropped from the same height will hit the ground at the same time (assuming the aerodynamic forces acting on the objects are negligible).
Note that the force of gravity varies slightly on Earth. For example, at the poles, the force of gravity is slightly greater than at the equator due to the fact that the poles are closer to the center of the Earth.
What else can I help you with?
Will a car or a bowling ball hit the ground first?
Both the car and the bowling ball will hit the ground at the same time, assuming they are dropped from the same height in a vacuum. This is because all objects fall at the same rate of acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass.
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.
Compare the speed of a moving golf ball with the speed of a moving bowling ball if both balls have the same amount of momentum?
momentum=velocity x mass say a golf ball weighs 1 pound and the bowling ball weighs 5 pounds the golf ball would have to be moving 5 times faster than the bowling ball to have the same momentum
Does a marble and a bowling ball hit the ground at the same time?
In a vacuum, they would hit the ground at the same time due to gravity. However, in the real world with air resistance, the bowling ball would typically hit the ground first because it has more mass and air resistance affects lighter objects more.
How can you make a bowling ball and soccer ball have the same gravitational potential energy?
You can make the bowling ball and soccer ball have the same gravitational potential energy by lifting them to the same height above the ground. Gravitational potential energy depends on the mass of the object and the height it is lifted, so as long as both balls are lifted to the same height, they will have the same gravitational potential energy.
Will a bowling ball or a golf ball hit the ground first the same speed?
a golf ball obviously...
Will a car or a bowling ball hit the ground first?
Both the car and the bowling ball will hit the ground at the same time, assuming they are dropped from the same height in a vacuum. This is because all objects fall at the same rate of acceleration due to gravity, regardless of their mass.
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.
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.
What will hit the ground first a 1 pound steel ball or a 5 pound steel ball?
If dropped from the same height, they will hit the ground at the same time.
Will a bowling ball or golf ball hit the ground first?
The bowling ball will hit the ground first because it has more mass than the golf ball, so it experiences a greater force of gravity pulling it downward. This causes the bowling ball to accelerate more quickly than the golf ball, making it reach the ground sooner.
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.
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.
Will a 8-lb bowling ball dropped from the fifth floor drop before a 10-lb bowling ball?
Near the surface of the earth, all objects fall with the same acceleration; after any period of time spent falling, all objects are falling with the same speed, and have fallen the same distance. If there's any difference in falling behavior between two objects, it's the result of air resistance. If they fall through a region where there is no air, a feather and a battleship fall with the same acceleration. If they're dropped side by side, they stay side by side all the way down. This has been known for roughly the past 500 years. Right. The gravitational attraction is bigger, but so is the inertia in the same ratio.
Compare the speed of a moving golf ball with the speed of a moving bowling ball if both balls have the same amount of momentum?
momentum=velocity x mass say a golf ball weighs 1 pound and the bowling ball weighs 5 pounds the golf ball would have to be moving 5 times faster than the bowling ball to have the same momentum
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.
Does a marble and a bowling ball hit the ground at the same time?
In a vacuum, they would hit the ground at the same time due to gravity. However, in the real world with air resistance, the bowling ball would typically hit the ground first because it has more mass and air resistance affects lighter objects more.
