Question

Hoe momentum is uded in cricket? Please explain it specifically? Thank you no spam thanks

Answer 1

Answer:

The momentum of the ball is not conserved at all. But if it is an perfectly elastic collision the kinetic energy will be conserved and then from (1/2)m(V^2)i=(1/2)m(V^2)f you have the two velocities equal in magnitude. The momentum of the ball of course changes and the change is equal to two times the initial momentum!
