Suppose that a bowling ball collides elastically with a row of stationary bowling balls all of the same mass. All the bowling balls are confined to move only along the gutter beside the lane in a bowling alley. Prove that after the collision only one ball can be in motion. Use the laws of conservation of momentum and conservation of energy (kinetic energy) to support your answer.

A bowler throws a bowling ball of radius 11cm down a bowling lane. It has an initial linear velocity of 8.8 m/s, but no initial angular velocity. The kinetic friction force causes both linear acceleration and an angular acceleration; the kinetic friction coefficient between the ball and the floor is 0.1. When the balls linear speed has decreased enough and the ball’s angular speed has increased enough there will come a moment when the ball’s contact point with the floor...

A) A bowling ball is given an initial speed v0 on an alley such that it initially slides without rolling. The coefficient of friction between ball and alley is µ. Find the speed of the ball’s center of mass vCM at the time pure rolling motion occurs. B) Since the frictional force provides the deceleration, from Newton’s second law it follows that aCM = µ g. Find the distance x it has traveled. When pure rolling motion occurs, vCM =...
