A bowler throws a bowling ball of radius R = 11 cm along a lane.The ball slides on the lane with initial speed vcom,0 = 8.8 m/s andinitial angular speed ?0 = 0. The coefficient of kinetic frictionbetween the ball and the lane is 0.26. The kinetic frictional forcek acting on the ball causes a linear acceleration of the ball whileproducing a torque that causes an angular acceleration of the ball.When speed vcom has decreased enough and angular speed f hasincreased enough, the ball stops sliding and then rolls smoothly.During the sliding, what are the ball's (a) linear acceleration and(b) angular acceleration? (c) How long does the ball slide? (d) Howfar does the ball slide? (e) What is the linear speed of the ballwhen smooth rolling begins? Note that the clockwise direction istaken as negative.
