Find the momentum of a tennis ball of mass 60.0 grams served with velocity 65.0 miles per second?

Momentum (P) is the product of mass (m) and velocity (v).
P = m X v
It's easy to get confused by combining metric units (grams) with imperial units (miles per second). Converting all the units to one system first will simplify calculations.

What force is responsible for a tennis ball moving forward after it gets hit by a tennis racket?
The ball keeps moving forward because of its momentum, which is not a force.

Explain the law of inertia?
Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest remains at rest and an object in motion remains in motion in a straight line with constant velocity unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
What meteor would make the biggest crater a big meteor or a heavy meteor or a fast moving meteor?
To put it simply, let's look at the question. Biggest (Radius), heaviest (Mass) or fastest (Velocity) The largest crater would be created by all three combined. Also, the size of the crater would be dependant on the ground it struck. A larger crater would be produced if it were a soft material like sand, whereas granite would only shatter and not make much of an impact. An object with the radius of tennis ball, would create a crater about the size of a tennis ball if dropped from say 50ft A lump of lead the size of a tennis ball would make a larger crater from the same height. A bullet travelling at 3,200 fps would make a small crater, but much larger than its initial radius or mass. So what would you rather be hit by? a) A large sheet of foam travelling at 10mph (Radius) b) A truck travelling at 5 mph (Mass) c) A bullet travelling at 3,200 fps. (Velocity) d) A bullet thrown at you (Low velocity) So, there is now way to answer the question, as all three are dependant on one another. An object with a large radius but low velocity will not make a larger crater than a massive object with a high velocity. Ditto, a massive object with low velocity will not make a larger crater than a bigger object with high velocity.
When is aerobic and anaerobic respiration used in tennis?
when you run and try to hit the tennis ball
Tennis ball have momentum?
Momentum is calculated by taking the product of mass times velocity. Thus, a moving tennis ball would have a nonzero momentum. However, since a tennis ball has a relatively small mass, it would need to have a high velocity in order to have a large value for its momentum. Since velocity is a vector (having both a magnitude and a direction), momentum is also a vector. When a tennis player hits a tennis ball with his racket, he imparts a force onto the tennis ball, which changes the direction of its momentum to return it over the net. (The value for this change in momentum is called impulse, which is equal to the product of the force applied and the time for which it is applied.)
Why is it easier to move a ping pong ball than a bowling ball?
Tennis balls are lighter than cricket balls. Therefore less mass. If a tennis ball travels at the same speed its momentum (mass x velocity) is lower. Therefore less momentum an easier to stop. Short answer, less mass and same speed means less momentum
A golf ball hits a tennis ball The golf ball stops but the tennis ball rolls away What kind of example is this Grvitaion Conservation of momentum Equal and opposite forces or velocity?
It depends on whether they are both moving or if one is stationary and the other is moving.
How does a tennis ball have energy?
if the tennis ball is stationary the energy in it is its gravitational energy given by the formula MGH=E where H is height in m M is mass of tennis ball in kg and G is 9.8 meters per second squared. if the ball is moving however the formula for energy from velocity is 1/2MV2=E ware M is mass in kg and V is velocity in meters per second
A girl throws a tennis ball upward with an initial velocity of 4 meters per second . What is the maximum displacement of the ball?

How does momentum play a critical role in tennis?
Disregarding the fact that that's a rather moronic question, momentum is required to maintain the movement of the ball through the air from side to side. Without momentum the ball would be stationary, along the the tennis rackets and players body. Which would defeat the purpose of the game.
Does tennis use velocity how?
Pretty much everything in this universe involves velocity since velocity is practically the speed of an object when a tennis ball is hit it has both a horizontal and vertical velocity also the movement of a tennis racket has a great velocity, also the movement of the players across the court have a very inconsistent velocity especially in single's matches.
What force is responsible for a tennis ball moving forward after it gets hit by a tennis racket?
The ball keeps moving forward because of its momentum, which is not a force.

Does a golf ball have more momentum then a tennis ball?
depends on how hard you hit in but in most cases....yes
