  • Physics of Tennis Lesson 4 Energy
    The Physics of Tennis Lesson 4: Energy changes when a ball interacts with different surfaces Unit Overview: In this unit students continue to develop understanding of what can be at first glance a complicated system, the game of tennis. In this activity we have taken two components of the game of tennis, the ball and court, to see if we can model the interactions between them. This activity focuses on the energy interactions between ball and court. Objectives: Students will be able to- • Describe what forces interact when the ball hits a surface. • Understand what changes occur when potential and kinetic energy conversion is taking place within a system. At the high school level students should include connections to the concept of “work =FxD” and calculations of Ek = ½ 2 mv and Ep =mgh according to the conservation of energy principal. • Identify the types of energy used in this system. (restricted to potential & kinetic energy) • Comparative relative energy losses for typical court compositions. Lesson Time Required: Four class periods Next Generation Science/Common Core Standards: • NGSS: HS-PS3-1.Create a computational model to calculate the change in the energy of one component in a system when the change in energy of the other component(s) and energy flows in and out of the system are known. • CCSS.Math. Content: 8.F.B.4 Use functions to model relationships between quantities. • Construct a function to model a linear relationship between two quantities. Determine the rate of change and initial value of the function from a description of a relationship or from two (x, y) values, including reading these from a table or from a graph.

After all, I was the guy who let his racket do the talking. I was the guy who kept his eyes on the prize, leading a very dedicated, disciplined, almost monkish existence in my quest to accumulate Grand Slam titles. And I was the guy who guarded his private life and successfully avoided controversy and drama, both in my career and personal life. But as I settled into life as a former player, I had a lot of time to reflect on where I’d been and what I’d done, and the way the story of my career might impact people. For starters, I realized that what I did in tennis probably would be a point of interest and curiosity to my family.

    HARBOR COURTS When Novak Djokovic, well known for his Gumby-like flexibility, Story by Jak Beardsworth walked onto the famed Monte Carlo Masters center court for his semi-final in April with a mummified-looking right wrist taped all the way up his forearm, it registered as the tipping point for the epidemic of wrist injuries on today’s pro tour. Obviously hampered, Is Tennis the Serb would not have nearly enough to Elbow overcome a resurgent Roger Federer, a tour elder at 32 and Passé? incredulously now #2 in tiny Switzerland, losing in straights on the majestic red brick dust. He then was forced to withdraw from the week’s following event, the Madrid Open, as the 2014 French Open loomed. Another one bites the dust. Hopefully in his case it’s only a small taste of the wrist malaise that has steadily crept into the so-called “modern era” of professional tennis, particularly on, but not limited to, the men’s side. Back in the day it used to be about elbows when players, sans the off-court trainers, massage therapists, and nutritionists employed by today’s big budget players, wielded heavy chunks of small-headed wood and metal sticks pitted against slower, heavier balls compared to today’s lightweight cannons and juiced balls. No wonder. Tony Roche, one of the world’s best in Rod Laver’s time, who eventually became one of Federer’s early mentors, once famously sought out a Filipino faith healer to rid him of a debilitating tennis elbow that was threatening his game.
