Why does a ball stop rolling on rough road sooner than on a smooth road?

Because the rough road has more friction, thus expending the balls energy quicker than smooth road with less friction.

What did the ball do when it stopped rolling?
stops rolling?
A rolling ball will eventually stop rolling why does it do that?
It will not, unless it is acted upon another force. If it's rolling on something, then friction will stop it (the ball rubbing on the table slows it down).
Is harder to stop a rolling bowling ball than a rolling ping pong ball when both are rolling at the same velocity Which is this an example of?
It is an example of momentum (sometimes called "inertia"). Velocity x mass. The bowling ball is much, much heavier. With both rolling at the same speed, the bowling ball is harder to stop because it has much more mass.
What are control variables when rolling ball in inclined plane?
It depends how you throw it. :-)
What are 4 control variables when rolling ball in inclined plane?
The size of the ball. The weight of the ball. The angle of the inclinned plane. The length of the inclined plane
How does carpet affect a rolling ball?
On carpet the friction is more as it is a rough surface therefore it stops or slow down a rolling ball.
Did Aristotle think a force keeps a ball rolling along a smooth level on earth?
yes !
Did Aristotle thinks that a force on earth keeps a ball rolling along a smooth surface?
YES
Does the texture of what something is rolling on affect its speed?
Yes, the texture of what something is rolling on can affect its speed. Rough surfaces create more friction, slowing down the object. Smooth surfaces have less friction, allowing the object to roll faster.
Does the surface affect the bounce of a ball?
Yes... If the surface is smooth, then the ball should bounce fine but if the surface is rough the ball will bounce all over the place.
How does a surface effect how high a tennis ball will bounce?
if it is rough it will bounce lower and it is smooth it will bounce higher
Is a ball rolling an example of acceleration?
Not necessarily. If it's rolling in a straight line on a smooth and level floor, then the acceleration is as good as zero. But if the ball is rolling up a hill, or down a hill, or around the groove in a roulette wheel, or through grass and slowing down, then there's substantial acceleration.
When was On a Rolling Ball created?
On a Rolling Ball was created in 2002.
What types of ball bearings are there?
Ball bearings are a rolling device that helps reduce friction with rolling apparatus with a ball and enables smooth movement. There are basically two types of ball bearings; radial and thrust. A radial is a pulley that is handles by tension, while a thrust type puts stress on the bearing to put weight on the load.
Does the texture of the floor affect the distance a ball travels?
yes because a rough surface may slow the ball down and a smooth syrface may let it keep going. {it also depends on the type of ball}
What are wheel barrings?
Wheel bearings on a car are ball bearings that support the wheels. They allow for smooth rolling tires and better wear for internal parts.
When was Keep the Ball Rolling created?
Keep the Ball Rolling was created in 1979.
