Will a bowling ball or a golf ball hit the ground first from two rooms high?

If air resistance can be ignored (and it probably can from 2 rooms high) then both the Bowling ball and Golf ball will hit the floor at the same time. Although the bowling ball is harder to get moving than than the golf ball (it has more mass), the bowling ball also has a greater force pulling it down than the golf ball (as measured by its weight). The result is that both objects have the same acceleration.

What will hit the ground first a bowling ball or an apple?
Assuming both were dropped from the same height above ground, in a vacuum both would hit the ground at the same time. In a significant atmosphere (e.g. average ground-level on Earch) the bowling ball would hit the ground first.
Will a bowling ball or a golf ball hit the ground first the same speed?
a golf ball obviously...
Will a bowling ball or golf ball hit the ground first?
In a vacuum, they will hit at the same time.
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?
Friction
True or false if you drop a feather and a bowling ball from a three story building at the same time the bowling ball hits the ground first?
In a vacuum, both will hit at the same time. The bowling ball will do so in normal atmosphere due to the friction of the air.
What will hit the ground first bowling ball or golf ball?
They will fall at the same rate, for more information Google "why was the leaning tower of Pisa built"
Bowling ball and Apple dropped from same heigtht?
If you drop an apple from your right hand and a bowling ball from your left off the roof of the bowling alley, they will hit the parking lot at the same time.
Imagine an experiment in which a 16lb bowling ball and a 10lb bowling ball are dropped from the fifth floor at the same time The heavier ball will reach the ground first?
No. They will hit the ground at the same time. The inertia for the heavier ball will be greater, but the acceleration for both will be the same, and both would (if the air resistance is the same for both) hit at the same time.
Will a16 lb bowling ball and a 10 lb bowling ball dropped together reach the ground together?
Yes... Its not the weight but the force of gravity
Why do you double dribble your bowling ball?
when the ball(in your hand) hits the ground, then hits the lane when its released.
What is the bowling ball and soccer ball thing again on newtons second law of motion?
A bowling ball and a soccer ball, dropped from the same height will hit the ground at exactly the same time.
