How does newtons second law apply to ping pong?

The harder you hit the ball, makes it accelerate and makes it difficult to return the ball back on the table.


Why do moving body accelerate?

Not all moving objects accelerate. In general, an object will accelerate if there is a net force acting on it. For a ball in the air, this might be gravitation + air resistance; for a moving car (once you turn the engine off) it might be the force of friction; etc.


What force causes a ball to return to the ground?

friction


What force causes the ball to fall to the ground?

The force that causes the ball to fall to the ground is gravity. Gravity is a natural force that attracts objects towards each other, and in the case of the ball falling, it is being pulled towards the Earth's center by the force of gravity.


When you throw a ball at a wall it bounces back. What is the force making that ball come back?

Elasticity (or reversible deformation). The force expended to accelerate the ball causes it to move into the wall. There, it will come into contact with the wall and will deform. When deformation and reformation have been completed, the ball will be moving away from the wall. The energy exchanges will have balanced and the laws of conservation will have been obeyed. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on elasticity.


What causes an object to have more momentum?

An outside force causes an object to have more momentum. For example, if you push a ball, the ball would have more momentum and would therefore move. You pushing the ball would be the outside force.


Does it require as much force to stop a ball as to throw it?

No, you do not have to use as much force if you accelerate the ball over a longer distance. This means you are slowing it at a lower rate, but take long enough for the slowing to make a difference.


How much force it needed to accelerate a 25 kg bowling ball at?

(25) times (desired rate of acceleration) Newtons.


What effect does the force of gravity have on the speed of a ball when you throw it in the air?

Gravity will accelerate any object (aka, the ball) towards the center of the earth, (or "down") at 10m/s2.


A ball striking a wall in which the force of the ball on the wall is equal to the force of the wall on the ball. will it accelerate?

Acceleration is the change in speed or direction. When the ball strikes a wall it will likely rebound. That is a change in direction. Some of the energy of the ball went into heat and sound so, that is also a change in speed. The only wall that would have no effect on the ball's acceleration would be a wall of light or an imaginary wall.


Unbalanced forces in volleyball?

Unbalanced forces are important in order to move anything. An object under balanced forces does not move. For example as you sit in your chair reading this, gravity is exerting a force on your body downwards but your chair balances this force by exerting a force upwards on you that is equal and opposite to the force of gravity. These two forces oppose each other and therefore you do not move. In tennis in order to change the direction of a tennis ball you need to exert a net force(an unbalanced force) in the direction you want the tennis ball to move. In tennis there are also unbalanced torques(a force acting at a distance from a pivot point) on the ball that cause the ball to spin. Hope that helps.


What causes a tennis ball to move straight?

Applied force when the ball is hit, and air resistance on the ball going in the opposite direction.
