Tennis Court Speed Measurement

[JamieStrath]

Hi everyone,

Can anyone tell me what information I'd need to calculate the maximum and minimum bounce angle of a tennis ball being fired at a tennis court? The ball is being fired at 30 m/s at an angle of 16° and the coefficient of restitution of the tennis ball is 0.759. What other coefficients and other variables will need to be measured?

Thanks,

Jamie
