Tennis balls traveling faster than 100 mph routinely
Chapter 40, Problem 40.81(choose chapter or problem)
Tennis balls traveling faster than 100 mph routinely bounce off tennis rackets. At some sufficiently high speed, however, the ball will break through the strings and keep going. The racket is a potential-energy barrier whose height is the energy of the slowest string-breaking ball. Suppose that a 100 g tennis ball traveling at 200 mph is just sufficient to break the 2.0-mm-thick strings. Estimate the probability that a 120 mph ball will tunnel through the strings without breaking them. Give your answer as a power of 10 rather than a power of e.
