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.

Would you use a bowling ball covered in wool?
No, the wool would absorb some of the energy, making the bowling ball less effective for its purpose.
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
What is mass of a particle when it moves with velocity of light?
Fasten your seat belt . . .-- If the particle has any mass when it's not moving, then that mass becomes greaterthe faster the particle moves.-- If the particle could be pushed to the speed of light, its mass would be infinite at that speed.-- But in order to make the particle move faster, you have to add energy to it. The more mass it has,the more energy you have to give it in order to make it move faster.-- Since its mass grows as it moves faster, the amount of energy it takes to make itgo faster also grows.-- If its mass is growing toward infinity, then the amount of energy you need to make itgo faster is also growing toward infinity.-- Since the mass would be infinite at the speed of light, you would need an infinite amountof energy to boost it to that speed.-- You don't have enough energy available to do the job, and you can''t get it.
Do you use more energy when you are hot or cold?
One would think that you use more energy when hot, because it makes everything in your body move faster.
Whst if a magnet is stronger when hot why would a magnet be stronger when hot why?
more kinetic energy. The hotter the substance the faster the particles are moving and the more heat energy it has
What is the relshionship between mass and kinetic energy?
E=m(c squared) This is true when: E is the energy in joule. M is the mass in kilograms. C is the speed of light in kilometers per hour.
True or false a waterfall is an example of kinectic energy?
The water physically falling would be yes, but the water that has yet to fall would be an example of potential energy. To answer your question It is true.
Would you use a bowling ball covered in wool?
No, the wool would absorb some of the energy, making the bowling ball less effective for its purpose.
Does a bowling ball sitting on a shelf have more potential energy than a baseball ball on the same shelf?
My bet is on the bowling ball. At 20000 ft the pull of gravity is only marginally smaller than that of the baseball bat at 2 ft above sea leval. Because both have been lifted to their respective hights giving them potential energy, I would keep out of the way of the ball.
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
What is the form in which energy is stored in wind?
First of all, I believe that you have the question a bit wrong. I think that what you want to ask is "What type of energy is in wind" rather than what type of energy is stored in wind. Wind would be kinectic energy which means "energy in motion".
Why are kenetic and potential energies the same?
they are not the same. kinetic energy is energe that an object has due to its motion. potential energy is stored and held in the readiness. for example kinetic energy would be like a bowling ball knocking over bowling pins. unlike kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion, potential energy is stored and may be used later on like a car stopping at a red light.
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.
When you add energy to the particles move?
faster. and matter then would move slower

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.
What figure is a bowling ball?
A bowling ball would be considered a sphere.
