Given information
Nylon string diameter 
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
To prevent breakage, thicker strings should be used, which will increase the cross-sectional area of the strings and thus increase the maximum force. Breakage occurs because when the strings are hit by the ball, they stretch, increasing the tension. The strings are reasonably tight in the normal racket configuration, so when the tension is increased by a particularly hard hit, the tension may exceed the maximum force.
