Question

Which law best explains why more force must be applied to the bowling ball to make it accelerate at the same rate as the tennis ball.*


Bolling boll has 45 N
TENNIS BALL HAS 2 N
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Law of conservation of momemntum

Answer 2

Newton`s 2nd law best explains why more force must be applied to the bowling ball to make it accelerate at the same rate as the tennis ball.

• Newton's second law describes the relationship between force applied on an object and the acceleration produced due to that force.
• Mathematically, F = Ma

(F = Force applied, M= Mass of the object, a = acceleration produced)

• Hence, F ∝ m
• Since given, the mass of tennis ball < bowling ball. Thus more force is required to produce the same acceleration.
