It’s an undeniable sensation — strutting off as all the pins collapse onto the ground, the scoreboard blaring ‘STRIKE!’, then coolly returning to your seat, with your good fortune appearing like a brilliant move. However, scientists have now solved the major puzzle of physics—and athletics. Achieving success all at once can be as simple as targeting the 28th plank from the left on the wooden flooring. The bowler must additionally let go of the ball at an angle of 1.8 degrees to the right of perfectly straight...no sweat. Utilizing the research conducted by the renowned 18th-century mathematician Leonhard Euler, scientists from Loughborough University, Massachusetts Princeton University Institute of Technology and the University New Mexico conducted a number of simulations using data from average bowlers. In simpler terms, this involved a sphere launched at 17.9 miles per hour at a 45-degree angle from the foul line, spinning at a rate of 416 rotations per minute. ...
