Overhand Bowling
In the ill-conceived sport of overhand bowling (to become a medal event at the 2020 Olympics!), the original practitioner of the sport was the God of Thunder, Thor.
Thor went so far as to have a bowling alley built in his home with the lane on the ceiling. He would slide his bowling ball of mass to the right along the entire length of the ceiling by applying a constant force of as shown. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and ceiling is .
- Draw and clearly label the free body diagram of the bowling ball as it slides across the lane
(ceiling). Use both symbols and words describing the origin of each force.
For example, “ – The Jedi Force acting upward on Emperor Palpatine exerted by Rey”. This
is similar to #1 in the most recent turned in homework.
- State clearly in words the
Newton’s Third Law pair force to each force in part (A), assuming that one exists.
- Determine the components of the applied force for the given coordinate system.
- Determine the coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and the lane given that the ball accelerates in these conditions at only to the right.
