  • Measurements of the Horizontal Coefficient of Restitution for a Superball and a Tennis Ball
    Measurements of the horizontal coefficient of restitution for a superball and a tennis ball Rod Crossa) Physics Department, University of Sydney, Sydney, NSW 2006 Australia ͑Received 9 July 2001; accepted 20 December 2001͒ When a ball is incident obliquely on a flat surface, the rebound spin, speed, and angle generally differ from the corresponding incident values. Measurements of all three quantities were made using a digital video camera to film the bounce of a tennis ball incident with zero spin at various angles on several different surfaces. The maximum spin rate of a spherical ball is determined by the condition that the ball commences to roll at the end of the impact. Under some conditions, the ball was found to spin faster than this limit. This result can be explained if the ball or the surface stores energy elastically due to deformation in a direction parallel to the surface. The latter effect was investigated by comparing the bounce of a tennis ball with that of a superball. Ideally, the coefficient of restitution ͑COR͒ of a superball is 1.0 in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The COR for the superball studied was found to be 0.76 in the horizontal direction, and the corresponding COR for a tennis ball was found to vary from Ϫ0.51 to ϩ0.24 depending on the incident angle and the coefficient of sliding friction. © 2002 American Association of Physics Teachers. ͓DOI: 10.1119/1.1450571͔ I. INTRODUCTION scribed as fast, while a surface such as clay, with a high coefficient of friction, is described as slow.

  • New Surface for the Australian Open
    NEW SURFACE FOR THE AUSTRALIAN OPEN PLEXICUSHION® SELECTED FOR GRAND SLAM TENNIS TOURNAMENT Andover, MA. USA – June 6, 2007 Tennis Australia announced the selection of Plexicushion Prestige as the Surface of the Australian Open. The decision was made after an extended review process which focused on the upgrade of Melbourne Park and a broader program focusing on the upgrade of tennis facilities throughout Australia. Removal of the old surface began on June 4, 2007. The Plexicushion surface will be supplied and installed by Wm. Loud (Aust.) Pty. Ltd. of Melbourne. The construction will be completed in time for the 2008 tournament. Lead up tournaments in Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East will also convert their facilities to Plexicushion. The worldwide network of Plexipave contractors will insure consistency at all events. The key advantages leading to the change were: • Plexicushion Prestige is a cushioned acrylic surface with a worldwide reputation for consistency, comfort and durability. • Plexicushion System products are available throughout Australia and the world through Authorized Applicators. • Plexicushion is known for delivering uniform bounce, speed of play from court to court and site to site. The medium pace allows players to train for all aspects of the game. • The shock absorbing properties of Plexicushion are engineered to allow players to play “on the court” not “in the court”. Plexicushion Prestige is classified by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) as a Category 2 speed of play. The Australian Open will have a unique pace to meet the demands of the professional players. About Plexipave/Plexicushion Based in Andover, Massachusetts, the Plexipave System is a division of California Products Corporation, an innovative manufacturer of sport surfaces, and quality coatings since 1926.
