The Science Behind Bowling

Ever wonder why that beautiful rolling bowling ball that just hit the center pin so nicely didn’t result in a strike? You released it with plenty of force and it headed straight down the middle of the lane bearing down on the pins with exceptional accuracy. But instead of a strike, you were left with the dreaded 7 – 10 split. Investigate the physics that makes a difference between a strike, a spare, and a gutter ball. Explore the sport of bowling through the lens of Newton’s Three Laws of Motion. We look at important terms such as friction, force, gravity, mass, momentum, inertia, and velocity and see how they play out as the bowling ball is released and tracks down the lane to contact with the pins. We explore how bowling technology utilizes the science of physics to enhance the success of both the recreational bowler and the professional.
