Question

state two applications of impulse

Answer 1

Application of impulse :-

i) A cricket player lowers has hands while catching the ball : by doing so the time of impact increases and hence the effect of force decreases.

(ii) When a person falls from a certain height on floor, he receives more injuries as compared to falling on a heap of sand. It is because the Cemented floor does not yield whereas the sand yield there by increasing the time of impact hence decreasing the impact of force.

Answer 2

☺️Good morning☺️

Explanation:

Two Applications of impulse are-

1.Catching the ball by a cricketer:

☑️ While catching a fast ball,the player moves his hands backward after catching the ball.By moving his hands,the cricketer increases the time.As a result he has to apply a small force on the ball.In reaction,the ball also applies lesser force and the hands of the player are not injured.

2. Jumping on heap of sand.

☑️If someone jumps from a height on a heap of sand below,his feet move inside the sand very slowly.His momentum changes slowly requiring a lesser force of action from the sand.The man is not injured.
