Why a cricket player lowers his hands while catching a cricket ball? Explain.

Answer»

Solution :We know, impulse= force`XX` time
`""` change in linear momentum.
Force not only depends on the change in momentum but also how fast the change is brought about. The same change in momentum brought about in shorter time needs GREATER force. by lowering his hands while catching the CRICKET ball, the player allows a longer time for the momentum change, thereby PREVENTING his hands from getting INJURED.
