Aaah, I think you might be up to something with this one. The easy answer of course would seem to be that the lighter 5 kg Bowling ball will be easier to stop moving compared to the heavier 10kg bowling ball. However, let's say that both balls are moving at a speed of 30 mph. If the heavier 10kg bowling ball is rolling alone on pavement, while the lighter 5 kg bowling ball is also moving on pavement, at the same speed, but in the front seat of a delivery truck! Well then, my money would say that the heavier ball would actually be the easier one to stop moving.

Is harder to stop a rolling bowling ball than a rolling ping pong ball when both are rolling at the same velocity Which is this an example of?

It is an example of momentum (sometimes called "inertia"). Velocity x mass. The bowling ball is much, much heavier. With both rolling at the same speed, the bowling ball is harder to stop because it has much more mass.


If a golf ball and a bowling ball are rolled toward each other when they collide and the bowling ball stops how does the golf balls speed compare with the bowling balls speed?

the golf ball stopped but the bowling ball keep rolling due to their different size and weight.as we know bowling ball is bigger in size as well as weight so it will face more fictin force and stops early as compare to golf ball when they collide and at the same time bowling ball poshes the golf ball back.so the golf ball stops and the golf ball keeps rolling.


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.

When a 5.0 kg bowling ball is rolling down the lane at 4.0 milliseconds . What is the kinetic energy of the bowling ball?

From the information provided it is impossible to answer the question. You require the velocity or speed of the ball and that is not measured in milliseconds - which a measure of time!


Does the texture of what something is rolling on affect its speed?

Yes, the texture of what something is rolling on can affect its speed. Rough surfaces create more friction, slowing down the object. Smooth surfaces have less friction, allowing the object to roll faster.


Does the weight of the softball and the baseball effect the speed?

If you have a choice of catching a baseball or a bowling ball both with the same ke which is safer?

catching the bowling ball will be the safest because in order for the KE to be the same the speed of the bowling ball must be less in order to even out the equations.
