SteveTo make a Bowling ball float or sink, it's necessary to manipulate its density. To make it float, decrease its density by drilling holes or using materials like foam. To make it sink, increase its density by adding weight to the ball or filling it with denser materials like lead.

The energy associated with a bowling ball knocking down bowling pins is?
kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. When the bowling ball is released and rolls towards the pins, it carries kinetic energy that is transferred upon impact, causing the pins to move.
The inertia of a bowling ball is what the inertia of a basketball?
No, the inertia of a bowling ball is greater than the inertia of a basketball due to the bowling ball's larger mass. Inertia is the resistance of an object to changes in its state of motion, and a heavier object like the bowling ball requires more force to accelerate or decelerate compared to the basketball.
What quality of a bowling ball enables it to plow through a set of pins without slowing down?
The bowling ball does slow down. Momentum is conserved. It's just that it's a heavy ball so it has a lot of momentum, and the pins are light so overall the ball doesn't slow down enough for us to notice.
How much does a bowling ball weigh on Mercury?
A bowling ball would weigh about 38% less on Mercury compared to Earth due to Mercury's lower gravity.
When a 5.0 kg bowling ball is rolling down the lane at 4.0 milliseconds . What is the kinetic energy of the bowling ball?
From the information provided it is impossible to answer the question. You require the velocity or speed of the ball and that is not measured in milliseconds - which a measure of time!
