Just wondering, what generates more force?
A bowling ball going 20MPH or a Ping Pong ball going 200MPH?
A bowling ball going 20MPH or a Ping Pong ball going 200MPH?
CronoSpark said:Well, assuming the bowling ball is more "massive" than the ping pong ball...
Momentum-wise, bowling ball
Force-wise, bowling ball as well
We need to take into account of the strong magnetic force induced by the bowling ball onto another object in this case, assuming that the atomic model is valid

If the bowling ball were only a little more massive than the ping-pong ball, the ping pong ball would have a greater momentum. And the force applied by the decelerating ball depends on the impulse time, which in turn depends on the elastic properties of the ball and what it's hitting.
And what's this "strong magnetic force" have anything to do with being smacked by a ball ? And why does this need THE atomic model to be correct ? And why do you doubt the atomic model ?
I'm sorry if I'm not following the line of logic here...it seems a little fuzzy to me.

Chornspark, refrain from idle speculations, please speak form knowledge or ask questions. Do not post questionable knowldedge.
The speed of a bowling ball going 20MPH is significantly slower than that of a ping pong ball going 200MPH. In fact, the ping pong ball is ten times faster than the bowling ball.
The speed of a bowling ball and a ping pong ball is influenced by several factors, including the weight and size of the ball, the surface it is rolling or bouncing on, and the force applied to it.
No, a bowling ball is much heavier and bigger than a ping pong ball, so it requires a significantly greater amount of force to reach the same speed. Additionally, the bowling ball would have to overcome more air resistance, making it difficult to reach such a high speed.
The speed of a ball can greatly impact its trajectory. A faster ball will have a flatter and more direct path, while a slower ball will have a higher and more curved trajectory.
In addition to weight, size, surface, and force, other factors that can affect the speed of a bowling ball or ping pong ball include the material and shape of the ball, the angle at which it is thrown or hit, and any external forces acting on the ball (such as wind or spin).
