As a tennis ball is struck, it departs from the racket horizontally with a speed of 29.0 m/s. The ball hits the court at a horizontal distance of 20.3 m from the racket. How far above the court is the tennis ball when it leaves the racket?
m

Solutions

Expert Solution

Time taken by the ball to reach the court t = R/u

                                                           t = 20.3/29 =0.7 sec

              height of the rocket from court h = gt2/2

                                                          h = 10*0.49/2 =2.45 m

For a top player, a tennis ball may leave the racket on the serve with a speed of 55 m/s (about 120 mi/h). If the ball has a mass of 0.060 kg and is in contact with the racket for about 4 ms (4 x 10-3 s), estimate the average force on the ball. Would this force be large enough to lift a 60-kg person?
