Question

At a typical bowling alley the distance from the line where
the ball is released (foul line) to the first pin is 60 ft. Estimate the time
it takes the ball to reach the pins after you release it, if it rolls without
slipping and has a constant translational speed. Assume the ball weighs
12 lb and has a diameter of 8.5 in. (a) Use your estimate to calculate
the rotation rate of the ball, in rev/s. (b) What is its total kinetic energy
in joules and what fraction of the total is its rotational kinetic energy?
Ignore the finger holes and treat the bowling ball as a uniform sphere.
