Question

A bowling ball has a mass of 7.2 kg and a weight of 70.6 N. It moves down the bowling alley at 1 m/s and strikes a pin with a force of 15.0 N. What is the force that the pin exerts on the bowling ball?

A.) 7.2 N
B.) 15.0 N
C.) 70.6 N
D.) 85.6 N

Answer 1

Ok I may be able to help with this question !

Answer 2

So the given data is what lets see
The mass of the bowling ball is

m=7.2kg

The weight is

w=70.6N

The velocity is

v=1m/s

The force is

F=15.0N

Answer 4

And so considering to Newton's third Law, if a body exerts a force on a second body, then the second body will also exert an equal and opposite force on the first body.

Answer 5

And so then if the bowling ball exerts with force, F=15.0N
On the pin, then the pin also exerts the same force on the bowling ball but in the opposite direction.

Answer 6

So we can already D and C cause those seem like un-even amounts
