Is there a correlation between Tennis and Physics?
It does in all kinds of ways, everything that we do involves physics. For example, when you roll a tennis ball, it doesn’t keep on rolling forever – it stops. That’s because of friction between the ball and the ground, the friction eventually brings the ball to rest. Physics also governs what happens if the ball hits another ball, or if it hits the net – will it stop, keep going in the same direction or rebound? It doesn’t just have to be rolling. If a ball is served, physics governs how far it will go and how fast – the force you hit the ball with, the weight of the ball and the air resistance governs the speed. If it dropped, gravity is what makes the ball fall, and governs how fast it accelerates downwards. Physics is the one science that every other science obeys.
