16. Describe the motion of a bowling ball hitting the pins using all three of Newton’s laws of motion. Include a description of the different types of friction present.

F = ma i don't know which law of his that one is, but it's that formula I think.

OpenStudy (abb0t):

I don't remember all of his laws, but one is about inertia. Which I think talks about a particle at rest...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First law: Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it. Second law: The relationship between an object's mass m, its acceleration a, and the applied force F is F = ma. Acceleration and force are vectors; in this law the direction of the force vector is the same as the direction of the acceleration vector. Third law: For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. @ abb0t

If you know the laws, just apply them! I don't want to write this for you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok I understand but I don't know what to say when it asks "Include a description of the different types of friction present."

OpenStudy (abb0t):

friction means resistance that one surface or object encounters when moving over another. meaning the ball across the floor, when it hits the pins...

OpenStudy (abb0t):

there's air resistnace, don't forget that. Which is one reason why when you throw a ball, it eventually slows down. it reaches a maximum speed and eventually decreases. do you get where i'm going with this?
