On the first serve, a tennis racket hits a tennis ball with a force of 1.8 newtons. On the second serve, the racket hits the same tennis ball with a force of 2.1 newtons. During which serve did the tennis ball have a greater acceleration? Explain
What is during the second serve because ther was an increase in the force resulting in an increase in the acceleration.
