since force is mass and acceleration the force needed to knock over a bowling depends on the mass of bowling and it acceleration.

How does pressure help build earthquakes?

To get the Earth to move (quake), much force is needed. Pressure is force per unit area.


How much force is needed to push the handle on a toaster down?

That really depends on the toaster. Try it out, with your own toaster.


How much force is needed to keep a 2kg object moving?

No force is needed to keep an object moving. An object with no forces on it keeps moving at a constant speed in a straight line. If there is any force acting on it to make it slow down, then you need just enough force to cancel the first one, in order to keep it moving.


How does the weight of a bowling ball effect how many pins it knocks down?

Because a heavier ball has both more mass (weight) and inertia (resistance to being deflected), it's more likely to drive through the pins and cause them all to fall.As strange as it sounds, on a textbook strike, the bowling ball itself only touches four of the ten pins. But it imparts energy to those pins, causing them to ricochet in a predictable pattern that causes them to take out the other six pins.The heavier the ball is, the more energy it transfers to those four pins, and the more likely they are to carry out their job. Of course, this assumes the ball isn't too heavy for the bowler to throw; since Force = mass x acceleration, a lighter ball thrown harder can hit the pins with as much (if not more) power than a heavy ball thrown slowly.


How much force is needed to accelerate an object twice as fast?

To accelerate an object twice as fast, you would need to exert twice the force. This is because force is directly proportional to acceleration, as defined by Newton's second law, F=ma. So if you double the acceleration, you must double the force.

How much force is needed to accelerate at 25 kg bowling ball at?

The force required to accelerate a 25 kg bowling ball can be calculated using the equation F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass of the bowling ball, and a is the acceleration. If the acceleration is given, you can plug in the numbers to find the force needed.


How much force is needed to accelerate a 25kg bowling bowl a 2mss?

The force needed to accelerate an object is given by the formula: force = mass x acceleration. For the bowling bowl with a mass of 25kg and acceleration of 2m/s^2, the force required would be 50 Newtons.


How much force it needed to accelerate a 25 kg bowling ball at?

The force needed to accelerate a 25 kg bowling ball would depend on the desired acceleration. Newton's second law states that force equals mass multiplied by acceleration (F = ma). If you specify the acceleration, the force required can be calculated using this formula.


How much force is needed to accelerate a 25 kg bowling ball at 2 ms2?

F = (M) x (a) = (25) x (2) = 50 newtons.


How much does it cost to bowl?

The price of bowling will vary depending on the center, day, time and if bowling shoes are needed for renting.


How much water can knock down a person?

The amount of water needed to knock down a person can vary based on factors like the person's weight, stance, and the force of the water. Generally, water moving at a speed of around 10-15 mph can exert enough force to knock someone off balance or to the ground. High-pressure water jets, such as those used in fire hoses, can easily knock a person down if they are directly in the path of the stream.

Does a bowling ball have more force than a feather?

Well according to the equation Force = Mass x Acceleration. A bowling ball has more mass than a feather but it all depends on how much acceleration each is undergoing. Potentially a feather can have more force (if the bowling ball has an acceleration of zero, then there is no force being produced, and if the feather is accelerating at any speed greater than zero, thentechnicallyit has more force)


Why does a tsunami move faster than a regular wave?

That's because a tsunami contains thousands of more gallons than a regular wave. Example: In a bowling lane, a bowling ball (tsunami) is heavier and it can easily knock down pins. It's fast and heavy. If you tried to knock over the pins with a bouncy ball (regular wave), not much pins would be knocked over.. Though this explains why a tsunami can do so much damage, it does not explain how it moves faster. in a bowling alley both a bowling ball and a bouncy ball would move at the same speed.


How does inertia affect bowling?

Inertia affects bowling by causing the bowling ball to resist changes in its motion. When the bowler releases the ball, its inertia keeps it moving in a straight line until acted upon by external forces like friction with the lane and gravity. The weight and mass of the ball determine how much force is needed to change its direction or speed.
