1. Calculate the momentum of the rolled ball for each trial using the formula p = mv. Show your work below and record your answers on your data table. 2. Graph the relationship between the momentum of each ball and the distance that the softball moved. The s-axis should be momentum (kg. m/s), and the y-axis should be distance (meters). Attach your graph paper to your lab report.

3. By looking at the graph, what can you conclude about the relationship between the momentum of the colliding ball and the distance the softball moved?

4. Explain why bowling balls have such a large mass. What would happen if you tried to bowl with a ping pong ball? Explain

5. When you bowl, should you roll the ball gently? Explain your answer.
