The balls will slide all the way to the end of the lane and not roll at all.
If the bowling lane offers no friction, the bowling ball will continue in a straight line from when it was released, with no rotation or curve. It will not slow down or change direction until it hits the pins or another obstacle.
Driving a car down the street is a source of friction. Rolling a bowling ball down the lane is also an example of friction.
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.
when a bowling ball(reactive ball) goes down the lane, generally the first 38-41 ft are covered with oil. The other 15 ft, the backend or dry is what the ball "hooks" or Reacts off of. the coverstock of the ball expounds the oil on the ball and the fricition between the ball and lane cause the ball to "hook"
Friction is important in bowling because it helps the ball grip the lane and achieve the desired trajectory, spin, and speed. The amount of friction between the ball and the lane surface can impact the overall performance and accuracy of the shot by affecting the ball's hook potential and overall control.
If it was my bowling center, I would increase friction on the three boards closest to the gutter on each side of the lane, and the first five feet of the approach. On the lane, the extra friction will reduce the number of gutter balls - which will make the occasional bowlers happier and encourage them to bowl more. On the approach, the extra friction will let you step off better.
