Chapter 4, Problem 4.38P
BIO Human Biomechanics. The fastest served tennis ball, served by “Big Bill” Tilden in 1931, was measured at 73.14 m/s. The mass of a tennis ball is 57 g, and the ball, which starts from rest, is typically in contact with the tennis racquet for 30.0 ms. Assuming constant acceleration, (a) what force did Big Bill’s tennis racquet exert on the ball if he hit it essentially horizontally? (b) Draw free-body diagrams of the ball during the serve and just after it moved free of the racquet.

In the winter sport of curling, players give a 20 kg stone a push across a sheet of ice. The stone moves approximately 40 m before coming to rest. The final position of the stone, in principle, only depends on the initial speed at which it is launched and the force of friction between the ice and the stone, but team members can use brooms to sweep the ice in front of the stone to adjust its speed and trajectory a bit; they must do this without touching the stone. Judicious sweeping can lengthen the travel of the stone by 3 m.
A curler pushes a stone to a speed of 3.0 m/s over a time of 2.0 s. Ignoring the force of friction, how much force must the curler apply to the stone to bring it up to speed?A. 3.0 N B. 15 N C. 30 N D. 150 N
