We need to consider for this exercise the concept Drag Force and Torque. The equation of Drag force is
Where,
F_D = Drag Force
= Drag coefficient
A = Area
= Density
V = Velocity
Our values are given by,
(That is proper of a cone-shape)
Part A ) Replacing our values,
Part B ) To find the torque we apply the equation as follow,
The bowling ball will require more force to roll because it is more massive.
To stop instantly, you would need infinite deceleration. This in turn, requires infinite force, as demonstrable with this equation:F=ma<span>So when you hit a wall, you do not instantly stop (e.g. the trunk of the car will still move because the car is getting crushed). In a case of a change in momentum, </span><span><span>m<span>v⃗ </span></span><span>m<span>v→</span></span></span>, we can use the following equation to calculate force:F=p/h<span>However, because the force is nowhere close to infinity, time will never tend to zero either, which means that you cannot come to an instantaneous stop.</span>
