You decide to take your middle school science class to the bowling alley for some “hands-on”
experience with force and motion. You ask Jill to take a turn. After she releases the ball and it is
rolling down the alley, you ask her to describe the force(s) that are acting on the ball at that time.
Jill describes two forces:
1) The force of the ball moving forward down the alley, and
2) The force of friction that slows the ball down.
What aspects of her response, if any, are correct? What aspects of her response, if any, are
incorrect?
