Answer 1

In cricket,the fielders gradually pull their hands while catching the ball in order to prevent the injuries while catching.

Because,the coming ball is always at a high pace and if the fielders make their hands stationary,the impact on the hand will be way more greater due to instant release high amount of kinetic energy of that ball.

But,if the fielders pull their hands,the kinetic energy will be absorbed consequently due to the relative motion of the hands and the chances of injuries will be decreased.
