With physics to sweet tennis victory!
When watching a tennis match, you witness physical forces and the application of Newton's laws in action. The notion of "centre of impact" is particularly fascinating – two specific spots on the racket that, due to the reduction of vibrations, enable the optimal and fastest hit. Scientists and tennis players alike are familiar with this phenomenon, but everyone knows that the art of finding that spot is only for the best. Excuse us, physicists, but in this case, we are talking about our tennis player, the best in the world!
