Question

Why is catching a slow-moving ball easier than catching a fast-moving ball?

विकल्प

• It has less mass

• It has less momentum, so needs less force

• Fast ball is smaller

• Slow ball presses more on hand

Answer 1

It has less momentum, so needs less force

Explanation:

The slow-moving ball has lower velocity and thus lower momentum, requiring less force to stop using F = \[\frac {Δp}{Δt}\].
