To calculate the change in kinetic energy, you must know the force as a function of position. The work done by the force causes the kinetic energy change

Explanation:

The work-energy theorem states that the change in kinetic enegy of an object is equal to the work done on the object:

\Delta E_k = W

where the work done is the integral of the force over the position of the object:

W=\int F(x) dx

As we see from the formula, the magnitude of the force F(x) can be dependent from the position of the object, therefore in order to solve correctly the integral and find the work done on the object, it is required to know the behaviour of the force as a function of the position, x.

Answer:

F=248.5W N

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd Law tells us that F=ma. We will use their averages always. The average acceleration the tennis ball experimented is, by definition:

a=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{v-v_0}{t-t_0}

Since we start counting at 0s and the ball departs from rest, this is just a=\frac{v}{t}

So we can write:

F=ma=\frac{mv}{t}=\frac{gmv}{gt}

Where in the last step we have just multiplied and divided by g, the acceleration of gravity. This allows us to introduce the weight of the ball W since W=gm, so we have:

F=\frac{Wv}{gt}=\frac{v}{gt}W

Substituting our values:

F=\frac{(73.14m/s)}{(9.81m/s^2)(30\times10^{-3}s)}W=248.5W N

Where the average force exerted has been written it terms of the tennis ball's weight W.
