Question

The Flintstones and Rubbles decide to try out the new inclined bowling alley, ``Bedslant Bowling''. Barney's ball and Fred's ball have the same size, but Fred's ball is hollow. Betty's ball and Wilma's ball are scaled down versions of Barney's ball and Fred's ball respectively. They all place their bowling balls on the same pitch incline and release them from rest at the same time.
Greater than Less than Equal to The time it takes for Wilma's ball to hit the pins is .... that for Betty's ball to hit.
Greater than Less than Equal to The time it takes for Barney's ball to hit the pins is .... that for Wilma's ball to hit.

Explanation / Answer

Fred's ball has more mass compared to barney's ball which is hollow... so it has more inertia...
the inertia values...
F > B

Wilma's ball is small than Fred's ball so inertia of wilma will be less than Fred but since it is not hollow it will be greater than Barney...
So F > W > B
Betty's ball is hollow as well as small so it will have very less inertia...
F > W > B > Be
and if inertia is more time will be more..
So the answers will be...
1.Less
2.Less
3.Greater
4.Greater
5.Less
6.Less
