Answer:

Will not move unless acted on by another force

Explanation:

Newton's first law states that at at rest or in a uniform motion in a straight line, will not change its state unless an external force acts on it. This law is called the law of inertia

Inertia, the tendency of objects to resist motion, is an integral property of all matter.

Objects do not move without an external force because of their inertia, which arises from the gravitational pull from the rest of the universe.

This bowling ball is attracted by the table it is placed on, the earth, the sun, and the rest of the universe. When this is at equilibrium it is these forces are balance.

So we need additional force to disrupt its equilibrium. So the bowling ball will not move unless acted on by another force
