2 According to Newton's second law of motion, the relationship between an object's mass (m), its
acceleration (a), and the applied force (F) is F-ma. How does this law apply to the sport of
bowling?
F When the pins are correctly aligned, their mass and acceleration will keep the ball from going
into the gutter
G When the bowling ball is rolling down the lane, the mass of the ball on the floor makes the
pins become unstable, allowing the acceleration of the ball to knock down the pins.
H When the bowling ball is rolled with a force, this accelerates the ball so that it has a high
velocity when it hits the pins.
3 When the bowling ball hits the pins, the ball has a mass, so it will exert acceleration on the
pins and knock them down.
