A bowler throws a bowling ball of radius 11 cm along a lane. The ball slides on the lane with initial speed vcom,0= 8.5 m/s and initial angular speed !0= 0 . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the ball and the lane is 0.21. The kinetic friction causes a linear acceleration of the ball while also producing a torque that causes an angular acceleration of the ball. When the speed vcom has decreased enough and the angular speed ! has increased enough, the ball stops sliding and then rolls smoothl
