Which one has more kinetic energy a bowling ball or a golf ball?

the Golf ball because it is heavier and the ping-pong ball is lighter so the wind does not blow.
I'd rather disagree with the above answer:
On this particular question, with the same Kinetic Energy (1/2 mv2), then with off course "mass of ping pong ball" is much less than "mass of golf ball", the ping pong ball will certainly required much greater speed (to have the same kinetic energy).
Any challenge is most welcome.

∙ 13y agoIf both balls have the same mass, then they both have the same momentum and, therefore, the same kinetic energy. However, if the Baseball has more mass, then in order for it to have the same momentum as the golf ball it must be moving slower. If so, then the kinetic energy of the golf ball will be greater because it is moving with greater velocity and we all know that K.E.=1/2mv2 .

∙ 15y agoKinetic energy depends on two things: the mass of the object, and the speed at which it is moving. Assuming your intention is to have the football and the baseball moving at the same speed, the football has more kinetic energy, because it is heavier.

∙ 14y agoThe kinetic energy depends on both the velocity and the mass of the object.
Kinetic energy = (1/2) x mass x velocity2.
If a Bowling ball and a golf ball are moving at the same velocity, then the bowling ball, being more massive, will have the greater amount of kinetic energy. However, bowling balls rarely move as fast as golf balls, so the full calculation is required for the specific situation of interest.

The bowling ball has more kinetic energy because KE = (1/2)*m*v^2
Where m is mass and v is velocity.

Which one would go faster with the same kinectic energy bowling ball or a golf ball?
Kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity. Therefore, an object with more mass, such as a bowling ball, would have to go slower than an object with less mass, such as a golf ball. So, if given the same amount of kinetic energy, a bowling ball will go faster than a golf ball, because it has more mass.
Which has more inertia a bowling ball or beach ball?
Most likely the bowling ball. According to the laws of physics, an object with more inertia accelerates slower but is harder to stop. The bowling ball accelerates slowly but has a high mass. The beach ball accelerates quickly but has a low mass. So the bowling ball has more inertia.
Compare the speed of a moving golf ball with the speed of a moving bowling ball if both balls have the same amount of momentum?
momentum=velocity x mass say a golf ball weighs 1 pound and the bowling ball weighs 5 pounds the golf ball would have to be moving 5 times faster than the bowling ball to have the same momentum
How does Temperature affect the bounce of a golf ball?
Q: How does temperature affect the distance that a golf ball will travel?A: Golf balls are made from a solid or liquid core with tightly-wound materials, and require a certain amount of elasticity in order to release kinetic energy during a collision (bounce). The property of elasticity is affected by temperature. Warm balls have a greater ability to flex during a collision, thereby recovering more kinetic energy than golf balls at colder temperatures. This scientific principle is called the coefficient of restitution. Simply put, the ball's 'bounciness' is dependent on the elasticity of the materials, and the bouncier the ball, the farther it will travel when struck by a golf club.
What happens to potential energy when a rock drops from your hand?
When the ball falls down, the potential energy decreases (potential energy is greater at a greater height), but the kinetic energy (energy due to movement) will increase.
Which one would go faster with the same kinectic energy bowling ball or a golf ball?
Kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity. Therefore, an object with more mass, such as a bowling ball, would have to go slower than an object with less mass, such as a golf ball. So, if given the same amount of kinetic energy, a bowling ball will go faster than a golf ball, because it has more mass.
If a golf ball and a bowling ball collide and the bowling ball keeps moving How did the golf ball's speed compare with the bowling ball's speed?
The force of the bowling ball colliding with the golf ball causes the golf ball to be redirected in an elastic collision. How fast either travels depends on the friction of the surface and the angle of contact with the bowling ball.Comparative Masses and EnergyIn the collision between a golf ball and a bowling ball, the fact that the bowling ball continues to move (although possibly changed in direction) is a function of the comparative masses of the two. The bowling ball is much more massive, so at normal velocities its kinetic energy exceeds the kinetic energy of the golf ball. In order to "stop" the bowling ball, the golf ball would have to make a perfectly aimed collision, and have a much higher velocity. Quantitatively, the velocity of the golf ball would have to be the inverse ratio of the ratio of the masses of the two balls, so that the kinetic energy (mass times velocity) is equal and in the opposite direction.Example : Golf ball at 45 g, ten pound bowling ball at 4500 g -- the golf ball would have to move at 100 times the velocity of the bowling ball to counteract its kinetic energy. If the bowling ball rolls at 2 m/sec, the golf ball would have to travel at more than 200 m/sec (720 kph or 447 mph), about 3 times a ball's normal velocity off the face of a golf club.
If a golf ball and a bowling ball are rolled toward each other when they collide and the bowling ball stops how does the golf balls speed compare with the bowling balls speed?
the golf ball stopped but the bowling ball keep rolling due to their different size and weight.as we know bowling ball is bigger in size as well as weight so it will face more fictin force and stops early as compare to golf ball when they collide and at the same time bowling ball poshes the golf ball back.so the golf ball stops and the golf ball keeps rolling.
If you hit a golf ball that is 0.05 kg and you hit it at 94 ms what is the kinetic energy?

A golf ball and a bowling ball have the same kinetic energy which is moving faster?
a golf ball because the weight is lighter and the wind helps iti think that the bowling ball will move faster because it has more mass.If my information was helpful please let me know in your comment!!Thank YouHOTGAL (!!EAGLE ALL DAII!!)^I think that's wrong.I think the bowling ball because it has more mass.My science teacher had this really good example:If you were standing in a hole,and I was rolling a bowling ball and a golf ball at you, which would change your face more?The bowling ball would change your face more.Here's another example which I got from my dad:If your dad and your younger sibling was running towards you,who would injure you more?It would be your dad because he has more mass than your younger sibling.Hope that helps.:D-Chubby Ninja

How big is a tumor size of bowling ball?
It relates to the size of a golf ball. The average golf ball has a circumference of 4"
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.
Would a frozen golf ball have less rebound than a boiled golf ball?
In essence yes because all of the particles have frozen and expanded making the ball brital Now when you hit the ball with a golf club the kinetic energy will be isolated a bit from the ball making it slower and have less rebound then a boiled golf ball.
Compare the speed of a moving golf ball with the speed of a moving bowling ball if both balls have the same amount of momentum?
momentum=velocity x mass say a golf ball weighs 1 pound and the bowling ball weighs 5 pounds the golf ball would have to be moving 5 times faster than the bowling ball to have the same momentum
Explain using Newton's second law Why can you throw a golf ball further than a bowling ball even though you throw both at the same angle and with the same amount of force?
both will have same kinetic energy ,so forward velocity will be lower for bowling ball , the time to go up then down to the ground under gravity will be the same for both, so distance = velocity * time , so lighter (golf)ball will travel further because its velocity is higher second thoughts, assume launch angle same for both, ball with greater launch velocity will travel further. (laws of ballistics) if work done on ball (f * d) is same on both , the lighter ball will have greater launch velocity, though both will have same kinetic energy at launch
