Final answer:

The momentum of the bowling ball is 99 kg·m/s and its weight is 88.2 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

The momentum of an object can be calculated by multiplying its mass and velocity. In this case, the bowling ball has a mass of 9 kg and is rolling at a speed of 11 m/s. So, the momentum can be calculated as:

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 9 kg × 11 m/s = 99 kg·m/s

The weight of an object is the force of gravity acting on it. It is given by the formula:

Weight = mass × gravitational acceleration

Weight = 9 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 88.2 N
