A cricket player catches a ball of mass $120 \mathrm{~g}$ moving with $25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ speed. If the catching process is completed in $0.1 \mathrm{~s}$ then the magnitude of force exerted by the ball on the hand of player will be (in SI unit):
(1) 24

Answer: (4)
Solution:
$\mathrm{F}_{\mathrm{av}}=\frac{\Delta \mathrm{p}}{\Delta \mathrm{t}}$
$=\frac{0.12 \times 25}{0.1}=30 \mathrm{~N}$
