A bowler throws a ball down the lane toward the pins. The ball reaches the pins and slowly moves through them, knocking down the center pins but leaving the end pins standing. The bowler wants the ball to reach all the pins. Which changes should the bowler make so that the ball has a greater acceleration?(1 point)

The bowler should choose a ball with more mass or throw the ball with less force.

In T-ball, batters hit a ball that is placed on a T-shaped stand. Batter A hits the ball by swinging the bat from a resting position on his shoulder. Batter B hits the ball with the bat directly behind it. In 3-4 sentences, create and justify a claim about which batter will likely hit the ball the greater distance.(2 points)

Batter B is likely to hit the ball a greater distance. When the bat makes direct contact with the ball, more force is transferred from the bat to the ball. This results in a greater acceleration of the ball, allowing it to travel a longer distance. In contrast, Batter A's swing from a resting position on his shoulder may not generate as much force, leading to a shorter distance for the ball.
