The apple may catch some wind to slow it down. The bowling ball will hit the ground first.

Now if this happened in a vaccuum...

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.


The boncy ball rubber ball and a bowling ball are about to dropped in the height which has more gravitational potential energy?

The most massive one. That's PROBABLY the bowling ball.


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


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.


Which has a greater force a bowling ball or an apple?

A bowling ball has a greater force than an apple due to its larger mass. Force is directly proportional to mass, so the heavier object will exert a greater force when both are accelerated the same way.


Would a bowling ball and a penny hit the ground at the same time if dropped from an equal height?

Yes


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.


Which has more mass a bowling ball or a table tennis ball?

a bowling ball


What is the kinetic energy of a bowling ball when it's dropped off of the side of a building as is continues to fall freely?

increases


A tennis ball a bowling ball and a feather are dropped from the Empire State Building in New York City at the same time With respect to what you have learned about air resistance which object reac?

The bowling ball, because it's the heaviest and thus not as affected by air resistance


F a tennis ball and a bowling ball are dropped from a 5 story building which one would land first?

if we ignore wind resistance they will land at the same time.


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.
