उत्तर
A batsman hits a cricket ball which then rolls on a level ground. After covering a short distance, the ball comes to rest. The ball slows to a stop because there is a force on the ball opposing the motion.
Explanation:
- The cricket ball comes to a halt after a short distance because a force opposes the motion.
- This force is the result of both air resistance and friction between the ball and the ground.
