This can be a tricky question; before answering one like this ask for the frame of reference.
If you are in a closet with a floating feather, and a ball on a shelf, and measure momentum relative to the closet, the feather will have more momentum than the Bowling ball.
However, if you look at the larger picture, you will find that
- the earth is rotating
- the earth is orbiting the sun
- the sun is moving relative to other stars near us
- the sun is orbiting our galaxy
- our galaxy is moving relative to other galaxies.
Every one of these motions involves momentum, and the total momentum is shared out among everything on or in this planet in proportion to its mass. The bowling ball is enormously massive compared to the feather, and has vastly more momentum in the universal frame of reference.
The answer is correct, but the last sentence is wrong. There is no universal frame of reference.

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.
The inertia of a bowling ball is what the inertia of a basketball?
No, the inertia of a bowling ball is greater than the inertia of a basketball due to the bowling ball's larger mass. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion, and a heavier object like the bowling ball requires more force to accelerate or decelerate compared to the basketball.
Which one has more inertia a bowling ball or a basketball?
A bowling ball has more inertia than a basketball because inertia is directly proportional to an object's mass. The larger mass of the bowling ball means that it will be more resistant to changes in its state of motion compared to the basketball.
Which has more mass a bowling ball or a table tennis ball?
a bowling ball
Which has more volume a bowling ball or beach ball?
Most likely the bowling ball. According to the laws of physics, an object with more inertia accelerates slower but is harder to stop. The bowling ball accelerates ...
Which ball has more momentumgolf ball or tennis ball or soccer ball or bowling ball?
b
Does tectonic plate size affect earthquake magnitude?
I believe it does. If you imagine it with a bowling ball and two tennis balls, when you roll one tennis ball into another stationary tennis ball, it rolls away, but not that far. Now repeat the same experiment with a bowling ball and a tennis ball, the result is much clearer as to which moved the stationary tennis ball more. The bowling ball did as it has a larger mass and size.
It is harder to stop a rolling bowling ball than a rolling ping pong ball when both are rolling at the same velocity. this is an example of?
This is an example of inertia, specifically the difference in inertia between the two objects due to their mass. The bowling ball has more mass, so it has more inertia and requires more force to stop its motion compared to the ping pong ball.
Which has more inertia a bowling ball or beach ball?
A bowling ball has more inertia than a beach ball. Inertia is the resistance of an object to change its state of motion, and it is directly related to an object's mass. Since a bowling ball is heavier and has more mass than a beach ball, it has more inertia.
Which of the following objects has the greatest inertia baseball bowling ball pencil or toothpick?
I think the golf ball has more inertia than ping pong ball, becuase of its weight. It is much heavy which result that it could stay at rest more, than a very lightweight ping pong ball.
What object has more gravitational force a marble a tennis ball a bowling ball a sand grain?
sand grain
Why does golf ball have more mass then a tennis ball?
A bowling ball is heavier than a tennis ball for a number of reasons. Two of which should be obvious: The bowling ball is bigger and therefore weighs more for it has more mass. And the bowling ball is made of a denser material and is solid. A tennis ball is made out of rubber and is hollow and filled with air.
