The formula to calculate the ball speed (BS), swing speed (SS), or efficiency (E) is:
\[ BS = SS \times E \]
Where:
Let's say the swing speed is 100 mph, and the efficiency is 75%. Using the formula:
\[ BS = 100 \times 0.75 \]
We get:
\[ BS = 75 \]
So, the ball speed (\( BS \)) is 75 mph.
Ball speed to swing speed is a measure of how efficiently the energy from a swing is transferred to the ball. This ratio is crucial in sports like baseball and golf, where maximizing the ball speed can significantly impact performance. The efficiency percentage indicates how much of the swing speed is effectively converted into ball speed.
