The main cause of this is Friction. The more oil that is laid down, the less friction there is between the ball and the lane surface. The less friction, the harder it is for the bowler to send the ball in a curved path imparted by the spin that the bowler puts on the ball at the instant of release.
Answer
The answer and procedures of the exercise are attached in the following archives.
Step-by-step explanation:
You will find the procedures, formulas or necessary explanations in the archive attached below. If you have any question ask and I will aclare your doubts kindly.
Assume that energy losses (due to aerodynamic resistance or bearing friction are negligible).
At the highest point, the pendulum has its maximum potential energy (PE) and zero kinetic energy (KE). The total energy is equal to the PE = 141 J.
At the lowest point, the pendulum has its maximum KE, and zero PE. The total energy is equal to the KE.
Because energy is preserved, therefore
KE at the lowest point = PE at the highest point = 141 J.
Answer: 141 J
