Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Science of TennisHow Physics, Biology, and Technology Explain the Modern GameWhy does a tennis ball curve through the air Why does topspin allow players to hit with power and still control the court How does a racquet transform a player's movement into speed, spin, and precision Tennis is more than a battle of skill and strategy. Behind every serve, rally, and winning shot exists a complex interaction of physics, biomechanics, human performance, and technology.In The Science of Tennis, you will discover the hidden systems that shape the modern game. This book explores how the ball moves, how racquets transfer energy, how the human body creates explosive power, and how the brain makes decisions in fractions of a second.You will learn: - How gravity, air resistance, and spin control the flight of the tennis ball- Why different court surfaces create different styles of play- How racquet design, strings, weight, and balance influence performance- How the body generates power through the kinetic chain- Why footwork, reaction time, and anticipation separate elite players from the rest- How fatigue, hydration, and recovery affect performance during long matches- How technology, data analysis, and biomechanics are transforming modern tennisFrom the physics of impact to the psychology of decision making, this book reveals the science behind the moments that appear effortless on court.Whether you are a tennis player, coach, fan, or simply curious about the science behind sports, The Science of Tennis offers a deeper understanding of the game and the remarkable combination of human ability and scientific principles that make tennis possible. …
