Answer: 15N

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate force in this scenario will be:

Force = Mass × Acceleration

where,

Mass = 6kg

Acceleration = 2.5m/s

We then put the values of mass and the acceleration in the formula. This will be:

F = ma

F = 6 × 2.5

F = 15N

Therefore, the force required to move the bowling ball will be 15Newton.
