Why is friction important in bowling?
then you would not be able to grib the ball
What are uses of friction?
Friction is when you roll a bowling ball down an bowling alley or when you kick a soccer ball. Hope this helped
Does a ball rolling down a hill cause static friction?
Friction is one force causes a ball to roll downhill. The smaller the static friction coefficient, the more liable the ball will be to skidding instead of rolling. Static friction is involved in a ball rolling downhill.
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
What does physics have to do with bowling?
Friction, (ball against floor), momentum, etc.
What are sources of friction?
Driving a car down the street is a source of friction. Rolling a bowling ball down the lane is also an example of friction.
How does static friction play a role in different sports?
action and reaction, the ball moves with force, it stops with friction .
What force causes a bowling ball to roll down the hill?
No. Speed and force cause a bowling ball to roll down a lane. Friction may cause a bowling ball to change course on a lane though, and also slow it down.
What is an example for friction using bowling balls?
Two come to mind, the ball slows down as it goes further down the alley. as the ball spins, the friction generated causes the ball to curve.
When does static electricity happen?
When friction is created by two objects that are moving but not relative to each other, its called static friction. Static friction keeps an object from moving until friction is created to move it.
What factors are important in selecting a bowling ball?
weight, span and pitch must be considered in selecting a bowling ball.
True or false if you drop a feather and a bowling ball from a three story building at the same time the bowling ball hits the ground first?
In a vacuum, both will hit at the same time. The bowling ball will do so in normal atmosphere due to the friction of the air.
