Question

inertia
force of the throw from the hand. force of friction. gravity down and ground up.
magnetic force
force due to friction in the opposite direction of motion. gravity down and ground up.
what force is acting on the bowling ball? the bowling ball is rolling freely down the lane and is about to hit the pins. #

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the motion of the bowling ball

When the bowling ball rolls freely down the lane, it is moving. But there is a force that opposes its motion.

Step2: Recall the concept of friction

Friction is a force that acts in the opposite direction of motion. In this case, as the ball rolls, the surface of the lane and the ball's surface interact. This interaction causes a force that tries to slow down the ball's motion.

Answer:

Force due to friction in the opposite direction of motion.
